Answer to Question 1

A, D, E
The common organisms causing sinusitis are pneumococci, Haemophilus influenzae, and strep-tococci.

Answer to Question 2

A
The patient should be aware that finasteride (Proscar) is a steroid that may take several months to relieve symptoms. Otherwise, the patient may wrongly think that the medication is not working, which could affect compliance. The medication does have multiple side effects, but the nurse should be more specific about emergent and expected effects and direct the patient to consult the physician if questions arise. The nurse should inform the patient that the medication does reduce the size of the prostate and is known as an ARI, but this information is not most important.
