Answer to Question 1

D
Feedback:
The use of adrenergic agonists varies from ophthalmic preparations for dilating pupils to systemic preparations used to support patients experiencing shock. They are used in patients of all ages. Therefore, the other options are incorrect responses.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
Assess complaints of nausea and evaluate emesis, and note color, amount, and frequency of vomiting episodes to determine need for therapy. The nurse is assessing the patient, not the family in this instance. How well the patient is eating is not an indicator of whether the patient needs therapy for nausea and vomiting.
