Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
The patient is experiencing sexual dysfunction so that would be the most appropriate nursing diagnosis. The patient did not discuss feeling let down by or unhappy with his body so disturbed body image is incorrect. The effectiveness of sexual pattern is not known. No problem with sensory perception is indicated by this question.

Answer to Question 2

A, C
Feedback:
Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) is released in response to falling blood volume, sympathetic stimulation, or rising sodium levels. It is not affected by rising calcium or parathyroid levels. Option B is not correct.
