Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
You need to exercise caution when using acupuncture with pregnant patients and those who have a history of seizures, are carriers of hepatitis, or are immune compromised (AIDS). Acupuncture is a safe therapy for low back pain, migraine headaches, and osteoarthritis.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Nurses can improve self-concept by reviewing old photographs when working with older-adult patients. This form of life review is helpful to older adults in remembering positive life events and people. Discussing weather does not involve personal reflection. Singing does not improve self-concept. Giving patients extra computer time is not applicable to improving self-concept but may help with learning.
