Answer to Question 1
3. Fibromyalgia is more prominent in women.
Rationale:
There are many theories about the causes and risk factors about fibromyalgia. It is generally conceded that it is a problem for women more than men. The disease has not been linked to overexercise. It is a theory that fibromyalgia causes some depression, not the other way around. Diets have been suggested as possible treatment but are not thought to cause the disease.
Answer to Question 2
1. Begin weaning procedures in the morning
Rationale:
Weaning a client from ventilatory support should begin in the morning when the client is well-rested. Activities and care should be limited during the weaning process to reduce the demand for oxygen. The client should not be given any medication known to suppress respirations since this would interfere with the weaning process. Medicating for pain would be appropriate when the client is back on the ventilator after concluding the weaning procedures. The nurse should not reduce the percentage of oxygen being provided through the ventilator since this is not part of the weaning process.

A nurse shows empathy to a client.
A nurse prepares a client for anesthesia and surgery.
