Answer to Question 1

B

Feedback
A Assessment is not a product of critical thinking that focuses on problem resolution.
B Decision making is a product of critical thinking that focuses on problem resolution.
C Clinical inference is a part of diagnostic reasoning.
D Diagnostic reasoning is a process of determining a patient's health status after making observations, and assigning meaning to those observations.

Answer to Question 2

C
After the assessment is completed and the information that the patient has a stage IV pressure ulcer is gathered, a diagnosis of Impaired skin integrity is selected. Readiness for enhanced nutrition would be selected for an individual with an adequate diet that could be improved. Impaired physical mobility and Chronic pain, as well as the nutrition nursing diagnosis, could well be the nursing diagnoses selected for this patient, but current data in the question strongly support Impaired skin integrity.
