Answer to Question 1

Randomized controlled trials
Individual randomized control trials (RCTs) are the gold standard for research (Titler and others, 2001). An RCT establishes cause and effect and is excellent for testing therapies.

Answer to Question 2

A
A valuable resource in the care of the morbidly obese patient (a person who weighs more than 100 lb above ideal weight) is the bariatric bed, which provides a safe, adaptable surface. The foam or water mattress and the air-fluidized bed are not designed specifically for the obese patient.

This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
