Answer to Question 1

D
Feedback:
The limbic system contains high levels of epinephrine, norepinephrine, and serotonin. Dopamine, acetylcholine, and gamma-aminobutyric acid are found in the brain but not primarily in the limbic system. Options A, B, and C are incorrect.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
The most commonly encountered adverse effect of the anticoagulants is bleeding, ranging from bleeding gums during toothbrushing to severe internal hemorrhage. Avoid all invasive procedures, including giving IM injections, while the patient is on heparin therapy. It would not be necessary to assess for respiratory depression, measure hourly output, or monitor the BP hourly as related because of heparin administration.
