Multiple Choice
1. Which Of The Following Is A Term Used To Describe A Philosophy Of Risk
Identification And System Of Injury Prevention?
A. Risk Management
B. Fiduciary Relationship
C. Virtue
D. Deontology
ANS: A
The Term Risk Management Also Is Applied To Other Areas Of Private And Public
Business But Is Most Frequently Used In Health Care. Management, As Part Of The
Term, Means That Once Risk Is Identified, It Is Measured For The Seriousness Of The
Potential Outcome And The Likelihood Of Its Occurrence. A Strategy Is Then Created
To Handle The Risk In Such A Way As To Minimize It Or, In Some Cases, To Eliminate
It Altogether. A Fiduciary Relationship Is Part Of Contract Law. Character Or Virtue
And The Goodness Of A Person In Living A Good Life Are Acquired By A Person
Through Learning And Reflection And Repetition. Deontology Is No Consequentialist
Ethics.
(B) Fiduciary Relationship: This Is Part Of Contract Law And Describes A Relationship
Of Trust, Not Risk Prevention.
(C) Virtue: Refers To Moral Excellence And The Goodness Of Character Learned
Through Reflection And Repetition, Not Risk Analysis.
(D) Deontology: Refers To No consequentialist Ethics That Focus On Duties And Rules
Rather Than Outcomes; Not Related To Risk Prevention.

These Cases The Risk Management Strategy Is The Removal Of Such A Procedure From
The Scope Of Care Delivery.
(B) Incorrect Because The Statement And Reason Are Related; The Reason Directly
Supports The Decision Described.

For Avoiding Complex Surgeries.

(E) Incorrect Because Both Parts Are Accurate And Related.
