Answer to Question 1

A, B, D
Feedback:
Severe, acute episodes of sickling with occluded blood vessels may be associated with acute infections and the body's reactions to the immune and inflammatory responses. Exposure to heat and metabolic alkalosis are not considered triggers.

Answer to Question 2

C
Feedback:
The adverse effects most commonly experienced with these drugs are GI relateddry mouth, constipation or diarrhea, nausea, abdominal pain, and dyspepsia. As a result, this patient is most at risk for imbalanced nutrition; less than body requirements. CNS effects are not common with this classification of drug. Renal failure is not a common adverse effect. Nothing indicates the possibility of spiritual distress in this situation.
