Answer to Question 1

A, B, D
Feedback:
To ensure safe general anesthesia administration, specific drugs must be readily available, which include diazepam to control seizures, ephedrine to use if the blood pressure falls, and atropine sulfate to dry secretions and prevent aspiration. Acetaminophen and lactated Ringer's solution are not specifically identified for use using general anesthesia.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
The extent of the laceration is defined by depth: a first-degree laceration extends through the skin; a second-degree laceration extends through the muscles of the perineal body; a third-degree laceration continues through the anal sphincter muscle; and a fourth-degree laceration also involves the anterior rectal wall.
