Answer to Question 1

3
Interventions to ensure the accuracy of hemodynamic parameters and an air-free system include fast-flushing the system after taking a blood sample, keeping connections tight, keeping the pressure bag inflated to 300 mmHg, not adding extensions to the line, and periodically performing flick and flush to the tubing system.

Answer to Question 2

1
High-density lipoprotein transports plasma cholesterol away from atherosclerotic plaques and to the liver for metabolism and excretion. Low-density lipoproteins, or bad cholesterol, are the main component of the atherosclerotic plaque. Very-low-density lipoproteins are considered more atherogenic and are more common in men and people with diabetes.

There are major differences in the metabolism of morphine and the illegal drug heroin. Morphine mostly produces its CNS effects through m-receptors, and at k- and d-receptors. Heroin has a slight affinity for opiate receptors. Most of its actions are due to metabolism to active metabolites (6-acetylmorphine, morphine, and morphine-6-glucuronide).
