Answer to Question 1

Answer: A, C, D

When conducting teaching for a client who is diagnosed with BPH the nurse will include information regarding prostate location and function, surgical approaches for treatment, and pharmacologic approaches for treatment. There is no specific diet for BPH. Permanent urinary catheterization is not an appropriate topic to include in the teaching session.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: A, C, D

Along with the projectile vomiting, the nurse would expect reports of blood-tinged vomit, persistent hunger, and a peristaltic wave. A low-grade fever and weight gain are not expected. The infant may lose weight due to pyloric stenosis.
