Answer to Question 1

ANS: 3
Some families of Chinese Americans will prefer to bathe the client themselves. They often be-lieve the body should remain intact; organ donation and autopsy are uncommon. Chinese Ameri-cans do not prefer pastoral care for after-death care of a family member. Organ donation is un-common for Chinese Americans. Chinese Americans may desire time to bathe the client. Quick removal from the hospital is not preferred.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 2
According to Kbler-Ross, the client is in the denial stage of dying. The client may act as though nothing has happened, may refuse to believe or understand that a loss has occurred, and may seem stunned, as though it is unreal or difficult to believe. There is no stage of anxiety in the five stages of dying of Kbler-Ross. There is no stage of confrontation in the five stages of dying of Kbler-Ross. During depression the individual may feel overwhelmingly lonely and withdraw from interpersonal interaction.

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
