Answer to Question 1

A
After acute anxiety passes, the nurse should focus on helping the resident recognize the behavior that was exhibited and how to deal more effectively with the anxiety. Scolding the patient, at-tempting to induce guilt, or causing the patient to dwell on the trigger do not redirect the patient to consider different behaviors.

Answer to Question 2

B
The drug theophylline may make patients feel anxious and restless. Tylenol, bisacodyl, and lisi-nopril do not typically have this effect.

Your skin wrinkles if you stay in the bathtub a long time because the outermost layer of skin (which consists of dead keratin) swells when it absorbs water. It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.
