Answer to Question 1

Answer: A, C, D
Prosthetic heart valves, medications such as ibuprofen, and bacterial infections are all extrinsic causes of hemolytic anemia. Acetaminophen use is not associated with hemolytic anemia. Thalassemia is considered an intrinsic cause of hemolytic anemia and would not be appropriate to include in this particular teaching.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: B
Activity Intolerance would be a priority diagnosis for this client. While anxiety, hopelessness, and altered nutrition may be appropriate nursing diagnoses for this client, they are not the priority.
