Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, B, C
All women should begin cervical cancer screening at the age of 21 years. Women between the ages of 21 and 29 years should have a Papanicolaou (Pap) test every 3 years. A priority assessment task for nurses in a variety of care settings is to ask female and male patients about breast self-examination. An adolescent male should be assessed for testicular self-examination habits, and older males should have an annual prostate examination. Women between the ages of 30 and 65 years should have a Pap test plus a human papillomavirus (HPV) test (i.e., co-testing) every 5 years. Women 65 years of age or older who have had normal results for previous Pap tests should no longer be screened. Women who have had a total hysterectomy (i.e., removal of the uterus and cervix) should not be tested, unless the surgery was done as a treatment for cervical cancer or precancer.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Outdoor environments affect individual health in the areas of sanitation and waste disposal, water quality, air quality, and safety. Children living in areas where there are safety issues related to gang activity, sexual predators, or heavy traffic are less likely to engage in outdoor play activities. Their limited access to safe outdoor play space increases their risk for sedentary behaviors, excessive calorie intake, and obesity. Indoor environments may harbor toxic household cleaning agents, chemicals (e.g., radon, carbon monoxide, unused drugs), tobacco smoke, and energy sources (e.g., microwave ovens). Exposure to mold, household pests (e.g., dust mites, spiders), and unsanitary living conditions in an enclosed space increases the likelihood of respiratory illness and skin disorders.
