Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 2
Rationale 1: Sildenafil (Viagra) is not contraindicated when taken with an opioid medication.
Rationale 2: Isosorbide mononitrate is contraindicated for treatment with sildenafil (Viagra) due to the potential complication of life-threatening hypotension.
Rationale 3: Sildenafil (Viagra) is not contraindicated when taken with insulin.
Rationale 4: Sildenafil (Viagra) is not contraindicated when taken with a proton pump inhibitor.
Global Rationale: Isosorbide mononitrate is contraindicated for treatment with sildenafil (Viagra) due to the potential complication of life-threatening hypotension. Sildenafil is not contraindicated in those who take opioids, insulin, or PPIs.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 1
Rationale 1: The age of a client is important in determining the etiology of the symptoms. For a male who is over the age of 60, these symptoms could indicate benign prostatic hyperplasia.
Rationale 2: The sexual activity level of a male might be useful in determining the cause of his symptoms, but this question is not specific enough to gain the essential information.
Rationale 3: This question would not yield useful information.
Rationale 4: Constipation could cause a feeling of fullness but is not associated with nocturia.
Global Rationale: The age of a client is important in determining the etiology of the symptoms. For a male who is over the age of 60, these symptoms could indicate benign prostatic hyperplasia. The sexual activity level of a male might be useful in determining the cause of his symptoms, but this question is not specific enough to gain the essential information. Constipation could cause a feeling of fullness but is not associated with nocturia. Type of bath is not a factor.
