Answer to Question 1

Ans: D
Teaching about measures to promote urinary system health is a major nursing responsibility. Measures include drying the perineal area after urination or defecation from the front to the back (or from urethra to rectum).

Answer to Question 2

Ans: D
Kegel exercises, or pelvic floor muscle training, are used to tone and strengthen the muscles that support the bladder. They can improve voluntary control of urination and thus improve or eliminate stress incontinence. The muscles to contract are the same ones used to stop urination midstream or control defecation. The client should not contract the muscles of the abdomen, inner thigh, or buttocks while doing Kegel exercises.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
