The nurse has been explaining advance directives to a patient. Which response by the patient would indicate that he has correctly understood the information? An advance directive is a document:
1) Specifying your health care intentions should you become unable to make self-directed decisions.
2) Identifying the activities considered to be evidence of quality care.
3) Verifying your understanding of the risks and benefits associated with a procedure.
4) Allowing you the autonomy to leave the hospital when you decide, even if it is against medical advice.
Question 2
Mr. Jackson is terminally ill with metastatic cancer of the colon. His family notices that he is suddenly more focused and coherent. They are questioning whether he is really going to die. The nurse recognizes that a sudden surge of activity may occur:
1) 1 to 3 months before death
2) 1 to 2 weeks before death
3) Days to hours before death
4) Moments before death
Three ways that factors affect mortality in response to changes in population density.
