Answer to Question 1
A
Imbalanced Nutrition: Less Than Body Requirement is the diagnostic label, whereas decreased food intake is the state of related factor(s) or etiology. The identification of a nursing diagnosis flows from the assessment and diagnostic process. Nursing diagnoses are worded in a two-part format: the diagnostic label followed by a statement of a related factor. Identify the patient's response, not the medical diagnosis. Because the medical diagnosis requires medical interventions, it is legally inadvisable to include it in the nursing diagnosis. Breast cancer is a medical diagnosis. Identify the problem and etiology to avoid a circular statement. Such statements are vague and give no direction to nursing care. Less than body requirements and loss of weight is circular. Avoid legally inadvisable statements that imply blame, negligence, or malpractice. The diagnosis that states insufficient prescription of chemotherapy implies that the health care provider gave an inadequate prescription.
Answer to Question 2
B
The extended family includes relatives (aunts, uncles, grandparents, and cousins) in addition to the nuclear family. The nuclear family consists of husband and wife (and perhaps one or more children). The blended family is formed when parents bring unrelated children from prior or fos-ter parenting relationships into a new, joint living situation. Alternate pattern relationships include multi-adult households, skip-generation families (grandparents caring for grandchildren), and communal groups with children, nonfamilies (adults living alone), and cohabitating.
