Answer to Question 1

D
Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia (PCP) is the most common opportunistic infection, but since the advance in antiretroviral medications, the patient is able to maintain a higher CD4 count, thus reducing the PCP incidence.

Answer to Question 2

A
The most important role of the nurse in an emergency cesarean birth is to prepare the client about the need for this type of delivery and what to expect perioperatively.
