Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
Source-oriented documentation is a record organized according to the source of documented information. This type of record contains separate forms on which health care personnel make written entries about their own specific activities in relation to the client's care. The problem-oriented method of recording demonstrates a unified, cooperative approach for resolving the client's problems. Source-oriented records are organized at numerous locations; there is not one location for information. The problem-oriented record is compiled to facilitate communication among health care professionals.

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback:
Although there are advances being made in prophylactic (preventative) surgery and in cost-control measures, a major current trend is to facilitate as short a perioperative period as possible. In general, medication is preferable to surgery.
