Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
The dorsogluteal site is identified by drawing an imaginary line from the posterior superior iliac spine to the greater trochanter of the femur. The injection is then administered at any point between the imaginary straight line and below the curve of the iliac crest (hipbone).

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Absorption rate is determined by the proximity of the medication to the vascular system. Medication injected into an intradermal site is farther away from the vascular system than the other sites. Therefore, absorption in this site is the slowest. Subcut tissue is more vascular than intradermal tissue. IM tissue is more vascular than intradermal tissue. IV administration places medication directly into the vascular system.

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).
