Answer to Question 1

3
Rationale: hemorrhage is persistent bleeding that may be caused by a dislodged clot, slipped suture, or erosion of a blood vessel

Answer to Question 2

2
Rationale 1: The safest position is near the doorway, so the nurse has a clear path out of the room if the spouse threatens to become violent. Under no circumstances should the student stand close to the spouse, because it might be interpreted as threatening or invading personal space, making the spouse angrier. Sitting down makes a quick exit difficult should it become necessary. Inviting the client out to the hallway exposes others to potential danger and reduces confidentiality of the things the spouse is discussing.
