Answer to Question 1

A
Client documentation systems inform effective nursing practice and support optimal nursing care. Effective documentation is critical to support clinical decision making, as well as to support aggregation with documentation from other nurses, and clinical disciplines to support optimal client outcomes.
Lab reporting does not necessarily inform effective nursing practice or support optimal client outcomes; it is an example of a current technological application.
Diagnostic imaging is a current technological application tool.
Billing and financial management do not support effective nursing outcomes.

Answer to Question 2

C
Spelling errors can result in serious treatment errors; for example, the names of certain medica-tions such as digitoxin and digoxin or morphine and hydromorphone are similar. Misspelling such terms can result in medication errors that may cause serious harm to a client.
It shows a lack of competency is correct but does not have a serious effect on treatment errors.
It displays little attention to detail is correct but does not have a serious effect on treatment errors.
It negatively affects the accuracy of the documentation is correct but does not have a serious effect on treatment errors.

There are major differences in the metabolism of morphine and the illegal drug heroin. Morphine mostly produces its CNS effects through m-receptors, and at k- and d-receptors. Heroin has a slight affinity for opiate receptors. Most of its actions are due to metabolism to active metabolites (6-acetylmorphine, morphine, and morphine-6-glucuronide).
