Answer to Question 1

B
Acute myocardial infarction is one of the clinical indicators specified on the oxygen therapy protocol. Oxygen therapy will reduce myocardial work.

Answer to Question 2

A
RV will be decreased rather than increased. Because TB causes a restrictive lung disease pattern, volumes and capacities will be decreased.
