Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, B, C, E
Signs and symptoms of a transfusion reaction include chills, shaking, flank pain, and sudden severe headache. Hyperthermia, not hypothermia, occurs.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, D, E
Children and adolescents with severe hemophilia can participate in noncontact sports such as swimming, golf, walking, jogging, fishing, and bowling. Contact sports such as football, boxing, hockey, soccer, and rugby are strongly discouraged because the risk of injury outweighs the physical and psychosocial benefits of participating in these sports.
