, Question 7
The patient inquires about how his body will kill pathogens unassisted by antibiotics. The nurse responds that a
process called phagocytosis will:

c. stimulate the production of interferons.
d. stimulate the body to make more white blood cells.

A. Engulf and destroy the pathogen

and cleaning up the debris.)

may regain use of motor
functions lost, so it is very important to prevent loss of muscle strength, contractures, and pressure ulcers.)
Question 9

a. encourage social interaction.
b. nurture intimacy.
C. Protect from harm
D. Foster independence
Correct Answer

Protection from physical harm,
from a nursing standpoint, is often equivalent in importance to physical needs.
