Answer to Question 1

D
Feedback:
The nurse should administer pain-relieving medications around the clock to control pain consistently. Administering pain-relieving medications before going to sleep, when pain is unbearable, or when medication is requested will not control pain consistently.

Answer to Question 2

B
