Rationale: False imprisonment is the act of improperly restraining another individual against their will.

Question 3 of 5
Which of the following is usually involved in Multiple myeloma?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Multiple myeloma is a type of cancer that develops in plasma cells, which are a type of white blood cells involved in the body's immune response. As a result, multiple myeloma primarily affects the hematologic system, which includes the blood and blood-forming tissues. This cancer typically arises in the bone marrow and can lead to an overproduction of abnormal plasma cells, which can crowd out healthy blood cells. Symptoms of multiple myeloma can include anemia, bone pain, recurrent infections, fatigue, and kidney problems, all of which are related to the hematologic system.
Question 4 of 5
The nurse recognizes that a patient is exhibiting symptoms associated with a TIA. After what period of time does the nurse determine these symptoms will subside?

The symptoms of a TIA typically last for a short period of time, usually less than 1 hour. In some cases, the symptoms may last up to 24 hours but generally resolve within a shorter time frame.

Question 5 of 5
Which of the following is a qualitative research design where lived experiences of individuals are examined in their "life-world"?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Phenomenology is a qualitative research design that focuses on exploring and understanding the lived experiences of individuals within their "life-worlds." It seeks to uncover the essence of a phenomenon as it is experienced subjectively by individuals, aiming to understand the underlying meanings and perspectives through in-depth interviews, observations, and reflections. In phenomenology, researchers aim to set aside their own biases and preconceptions to capture the essence of the participants' experiences as they see them. This approach allows researchers to gain insight into how individuals make sense of and interpret their world, providing rich and detailed accounts of unique human experiences.
