Answer to Question 1

C
Scoliosis is most likely to develop after the age of 10 years in the adolescent age group.

A central venous pressure (CVP) catheter is used to monitor right ventricular function and measure right atrial pressure and the right ventricular filling pressure. Left ventricular function cannot be measured with a CVP catheter; a pulmonary artery catheter is needed.
