Answer to Question 1

Ans: D
Feedback:
The nurse should administer cilostazol with caution to clients with pancytopenia. Anticoagulants are used for the prevention and treatment of pulmonary emboli, the adjuvant treatment of myocardial infarction, and the treatment of intermittent claudication.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
Feedback:
The nurse should monitor for dyspepsia in the client who has been administered ticlopidine. Hematoma is an adverse reaction to heparin. Dyspnea is an adverse reaction to protamine sulfate and treprostinil. Bradycardia is an adverse reaction to protamine sulfate.
