Answer to Question 1

C
The Special Supplemental Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC), overseen by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), provides vouchers for nutrient dense foods to low-income women with infants and young children. The La Leche League provides support to breastfeeding mothers. The U.S. Public Health Service and the American Academy of Pediatrics work together to recommend adequate intakes of folic acid for women of childbearing age to help prevent neural tube defects. The USDA does not have an Assistance Program..

Answer to Question 2

Thrombophlebitis
Rationale: Clients who are expected to receive parenteral nutrition for longer than 10 days should do so through a central vein since thrombophlebitis may result from the infusion of a hypertonic solution in a small vein. If infused properly, diarrhea, nausea, and edema are not common side effects of parentral nutrition since the solution is carefully formulated to contain a balanced amount of nutrients and vitamins.

Did you know?

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
