Answer to Question 1

D
Immune globulin will decrease the immune response to the vaccine, rendering it useless. Asthma, Ginkgo biloba, and uncontrolled diabetes do not prevent an individual from receiving a flu immunization.

Answer to Question 2

B, C, D, E
A needle breast biopsy is a diagnostic procedure that is used to determine if cancer cells are present. This procedure typically requires only a local or regional anesthetic; procedures that must be performed within 24 to 48 hours are considered urgent procedures for immediate life-threatening conditions; indicating that less pain will be experienced describes a palliative procedure; and indicating that less breast pain will occur describes a curative procedure.
