Answer to Question 1

B
The diabetic patient should limit saturated fat to less than 7 of total calories and cholesterol intake to less than 200 mg/day. Type 1 diabetes requires both insulin and dietary restrictions for optimal control. Nonnutritive sweeteners can be eaten as long as the recommended daily intake levels are followed.

Answer to Question 2

D
Preoperative medications help reduce the client's anxiety, the amount of general anaesthesia re-quired, the risk of nausea and vomiting and resultant aspiration, and respiratory secretions.
Preoperative medications help reduce the client's anxiety, the amount of general anaesthesia re-quired, the risk of nausea and vomiting and resultant aspiration, and respiratory secretions. Pre-anaesthetic medication will not reduce postoperative blood pressure.

Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.

Hypertension is a silent killer because it is deadly and has no significant early symptoms.
