Answer to Question 1
ANS: C
Chest heaviness or pain indicates myocardial ischemia, a possible adverse effect of dopamine. While taking dopamine, the oxygen requirements of the heart are increased due to increased myocardial workload, and may cause ischemia.

However, the most worrisome statement is the lack of running water for handwashing and general hygiene and cleaning purposes.
