Answer to Question 1

ANS: 1
Major surgery involves extensive reconstruction or alteration in body parts and poses great risks to well-being. Minor surgery involves minimal alteration in body parts, is often designed to cor-rect deformities, and involves minimal risks compared with major procedures. Ablative surgery is the excision or removal of a diseased body part. Elective surgery is performed on the basis of client's choice, is not essential, and is not always necessary for health.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 2
Blood glucose level can be obtained by either a finger stick or peripheral blood sample. Clients often require treatment of low or high levels preoperatively and postoperatively.
