Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
The nurse should report trends that suggest development of complications to bring to notice the need for collaborative intervention for a client. Collaborative problems are physiologic complications that require both nurse- and physician-prescribed interventions. Identifying factors that place the client at risk, resolving health issues through independent nursing measures, and managing an emerging problem with the help of the registered nurse are nursing roles performed during a nursing diagnosis.

Answer to Question 2

B
Corneal injury can occur in patients who leave their contacts in for an extended period of time. Patients are admitted to hospitals or agencies in unresponsive or confused states. Remove contact lenses, and rinse lenses and eyes with a sterile saline solution. Physical limitations create inability to safely insert or remove contact lenses or to cleanse the lenses. Contact lenses cannot cause blindness, otitis externa, or otitis media.
