Answer to Question 1

4. Respiratory alkalosis

Rationale: Anxiety disorders increase the risk for the acid-base imbalance respiratory alkalosis, due to hyperventilation that accompanies anxiety. The client with anxiety does not necessarily have vomiting, diarrhea, or memory loss as risk factors. Anxiety will lead to hyperventilation, not hypoventilation.

Answer to Question 2

B
Components of parenteral nutrition include carbohydrates, amino acids, and lipids along with vitamins and trace elements. Patients with a known egg allergy should not receive parenteral nutrition with lipid emulsions. Rapid weight gain might indicate fluid overload. Most infection control guidelines recommend changing the tubing every 24 hours.
