Answer to Question 1

C, E, F
The instructor would recognize that further teaching is needed if the student responded hypotension; cyanosis with cold, clammy skin; and urinary output less than 30 mL per hour. These are late signs of hypovolemic shock. The early signs of hypovolemic shock include: tachycardia; tachypnea; skin cool to touch; weak peripheral pulses; and pale skin and mucous membranes.

Answer to Question 2

4
Rationale:
1. The adolescent with cystic fibrosis is likely to be underweight, and is unlikely to take in more calories than needed while intubated.
2. The adolescent is present-, not future-, oriented, and is unlikely to worry about household chores.
3. The adolescent is present-, not future-, oriented, and is unlikely to worry about future unknown procedures.
4. The adolescent values communication with peers, and might feel frustrated that she cannot speak to them while intubated.
