Answer to Question 1

ANS: 4
The answer provides for behavior that is measurable and pertinent to the preoperative goals. Sharing the information and calling for the appointment are appropriate outcomes, but they are not the most therapeutic because they not related to actual compliance with the preoperative rou-tine. The remaining option is a client goal.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 2
Understanding the need for the surgery is not as directly related to preoperative requirements as is the understanding of preoperative routines. The remaining options are client outcomes.
