Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
High-frequency chest wall oscillation is accomplished by using a two-part system: (1) a variable air-pulse generator and (2) a nonstretch inflatable vest that covers the patient's entire torso (The Vest Airway Clearance System).

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Typically, respiratory therapists perform 30-min therapy sessions at oscillatory frequencies be-tween 5 and 25 hertz (Hz). Depending on need and response, between one and six therapy ses-sions may occur per day.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
