Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, D, F
The DASH eating plan includes a diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and low-fat dairy and other foods. Grapefruit, orange juice, and oatmeal would be appropriate choices. Bacon, whole milk, and eggs would not be appropriate for a person on the DASH diet.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Class I antidysrhythmic drugs act as a myocardial depressant by inhibiting sodium ion movement. Class II antidysrhythmic drugs act as beta-adrenergic agents. Class III agents slow the rate of electrical conduction and prolong the time between contractions. Class IV antidysrhythmic drugs prolong the duration of the electrical stimulation on cells and the refractory time between electrical impulses.
