Answer to Question 1

A
Family relationships play a big factor: Families in which positive parent-child relationships exist generally experience less substance abuse, whereas lack of closeness or involvement between parents and children may lead to substance abuse.

Answer to Question 2

A
Evisceration occurs when the wound edges separate completely and the viscera protrudes from the wound. The first nursing action is to protect the wound by covering the viscera with sterile saline dressings and notifying the surgeon immediately.
