Answer to Question 1

Ans: C
Feedback:
Naloxone is an opioid antagonist. Naproxen is an NSAID. Nalbuphine is an opioid agonist-antagonist. Nevirapine is an antiretroviral agent.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: A
Feedback:
The client is exhibiting nonverbal indicators of acute pain, which can result after naloxone reverses the opioid's effects. The client's respiratory rate is 18 breaths per minute, so impaired spontaneous ventilation is not appropriate. There is nothing to indicate at the present time that the client has a knowledge deficit or that he is not coping well.
