Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
No strenuous activity should occur for 7 days after the procedure. Carbon dioxide is infused into the pelvic cavity to visualize the organs. There are only one or more small incisions with this procedure. The referred shoulder pain that will occur should only last 48 hours.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Since the daughter is only 18, it is not recommended that she receive any of these screenings. Pap screenings are recommended to start at age 21. The HPV test can be done with the Pap test for women older than 30 or who had an abnormal Pap test result. A mammogram is recommended for women age 40 or older since cancers are more able to be distinguished from normal glandular tissue at that age.
