aniked [119]

Answer:

Informed consent is an important part of effective client care that helps accomplish treatment goals.

Explanation:

In all cases of treatment and/or surgery, the medical staff is required to have a written or verbal consent from the patient that they are allowed to proceed with treatment. If the patient is not of sound mind or body, the next of kin are able to then determine the best course of action.

In this example, it cannot be proved that the patient is not of sound mind, even though there is a family history of psychosis. In this case, it is important that the nurse is given consent to treat the patient as they see fit.

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

A man with muscle "dysmorphobia" is most likely to feel that he is scrawny, despite the fact that he is not.

Explanation:

A man with muscle "dysmorphobia" is most likely to f<u>eel that he is scrawny, despite the fact that he is not.</u> Dysmorphobia is a condition that makes a person feel there’s some kind of ugliness or defect in some part of their face or body when there actually isn’t. A person that suffers from this condition may get obsessed with it and that can affect their social life, their performance at school or work. Dysmorphobia differs from anorexia and bulimia in the sense that it is related to a specific part of the body or face, whereas anorexia and bulimia are both related to weight and the size and shape of the body. In this case, the man suffering from dysmorphobia believes his muscles are unattractively thin. His problem is specifically related to the shape and condition of his muscles, although there's nothing really wrong with them.
