Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 2
After the biopsy, if the percutaneous route was used, apply pressure to the site for about 20 min to prevent bleeding. The patient needed to take nothing by mouth for 8 to 12 hours before the procedure and not after. Oral fluid intake should be increased after the procedure. The patient should be instructed to report changes in urine output to the healthcare provider.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 1
A normal ultrasonic bladder scan finding is less than 100 mL for a residual voiding. Volumes greater than 100 mL would not be normal after a portable ultrasonic bladder scan.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
