Answer to Question 1

C
The first time the newly delivered woman takes a shower, the nurse should provide for her safety.

Answer to Question 2

B
Patients with spinal cord lesions above T5 may experience sudden and extreme elevations in blood pressure caused by a reflex action of the autonomic nervous system. It is produced by stimulation of the body below the level of the injury, usually by a distended bladder from a blocked catheter. Any stimulation can produce the syndrome, including constipation, diarrhea, sexual activity, pressure ulcers, position changes (from lying to sitting), and even wrinkles in clothing or bed sheets.
