Answer to Question 1

4
Leukotriene modifiers inhibit the allergic process. Beta-adrenergic agonists relax bronchospasm. System bronchodilators increase mucociliary clearance. Corticosteroids reduce inflammation.

Answer to Question 2

2
NG tube placement is contraindicated in facial trauma. Blood pressure cuffs are used for most, if not all, clients. An indwelling urinary catheter and Doppler may or may not need to be used when caring for this client.
