Answer to Question 1

A
Side-lying Sims' position allows the enema solution to flow downward by gravity along the natural curve of the sigmoid colon. This helps to improve retention of the enema. Administering an enema in a sitting position may allow the curved rectal tube to scrape the rectal wall.

Answer to Question 2

A
When integrating technology into Canadian nursing practice, the overall goal was to improve both nursing practice and outcomes for clients.
Access to technology is a strategy required to have nurses integrate technology into practice.
Competency in technology is a strategy required to have nurses competent in technology appli-cations.
Participation with nursing organizations is also a strategy required to have strategic partnerships to contribute to design and selections of information technology applications.

Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
