Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
To implement research-based interventions, nurses must read recent literature and remain current in practice. Implementation of evidence-based care is not unique to nursing; it involves interventions provided by all members of the interdisciplinary health care team. The best methods for treating patients with a variety of signs and symptoms are researched by nurses with input from the research findings of other disciplines. Nursing care continues to evolve as nursing research provides new knowledge and recognizes best practices to improve patient care and outcomes. Evidence-based practice guidelines and updated information must be included in plans of care.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
With the patient's permission, the nurse should share instructions with the people who may assist with care. Nurses empower patients and their support systems through effective teaching. When nurses provide patients and their families with opportunities to ask questions and comprehend health care information, they become an integral part of the health care process. Spouses, children, and friends often are involved in the care of a patient after discharge.

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water. It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.
