Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Following a bronchoscopy, the patient can eat as soon as the gag reflex returns, usually in about 2 hours.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Cardiomyopathy caused by cocaine abuse is seen more frequently than ever before. Cocaine also causes high circulating levels of catecholamines, which may further damage myocardial cells, leading to ischemic or dilated cardiomyopathy. The cardiomyopathy produced is difficult to treat. Interventions deal mainly with the HF that ensues.
