Question 3 of 5

Correct Answer: C
Rationale: ‘Acute pain related to unknown etiology’ accurately reflects the pain’s unclear cause, guiding further assessment. Option A lacks etiology, B assumes a psychosomatic cause without evidence, and D is less precise than ‘etiology.’
Question 4 of 5
A nurse is teaching a newly licensed nurse about palliative care. Which of the following information should the nurse include?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Palliative care focuses on symptom relief and quality of life for serious illnesses, not just terminal cases, and can be provided alongside curative treatments. It is not limited to healthcare facilities and can occur at home or in clinics. Prolonging life is not the primary goal, and it complements, not avoids, curative care.

Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Dual diagnosis treatment addresses both antisocial personality disorder and alcohol dependency with integrated care. Codependency support is for families, psychodrama explores emotions, and crisis intervention is short-term.
