Rationale: The main role of a clinical nurse leader (CNL) is to coordinate patient care.

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Lateral communication. Lateral communication occurs between individuals or departments of the same hierarchical level, making it suitable for addressing conflicts between the staff on a medical-surgical unit and the occupational therapy department.

Distorted communication is not a recognized type of communication and does not apply to this scenario.

Choice B (Transparent) is not typically used for stage 2 pressure injuries as it is more suitable for superficial wounds. Choice C (Gauze) is not ideal for stage 2 pressure injuries as it can adhere to the wound bed and cause trauma upon removal. Choice D (Alginate) is more appropriate for wounds with heavy exudate, not typically seen in stage 2 pressure injuries.

Routine screening for hypertension (C) is also a form of secondary prevention to detect and treat hypertension early, preventing further complications.
