Which statement reflects Dr. John Andriani's view on recognizing CRNAs as colleagues?

• A. He supported the measure.
• B. He regretted supporting the measure because he felt it conferred a collegial status on nurses to which they had no right.
• C. He initiated the measure.
• D. He opposed the measure.

Answer: (B)

The key idea is a nuanced stance: he supported recognizing CRNAs as colleagues but later regretted it because he felt it granted nurse anesthetists a collegial status that he believed they did not deserve. This shows ambivalence—valuing collaboration and professional respect for CRNAs while opposing the idea that their status should be equal to physicians' in terms of professional standing. The other options describe outright support, initiation, or opposition without this layered regret, so they don’t capture the described attitude as accurately.
