The correct answer is B. DAMA

Explanation:

In medicine, there are multiple abbreviations to describe different situations or medical conditions. In the case of the abbreviation DAMA that means Discharge Against Medical Advice, this abbreviation is used when a patient decides to abandon a healthcare facility such as a clinic or hospital against the recommendations of the doctor or healthcare professional. This situation should be registered in reports and documents because this action can lead to negative consequences in the health of the patients and by registering this, the doctor clarifies it was the decision of the patient.

This abbreviation should be included in Francis' chart and medical documents because he left the hospital against the advice of his doctor and therefore Discharge Against Medical Advice (DAMA) occurred.
