Answer to Question 1

1, 2, 5, 6
The physiological sexual response pattern that occurs in both males and females are: excitement, plateau, orgasm, and resolution. Erection is a response in males. Lubrication is a response in females.

Answer to Question 2

1
The goal of treating priapism is to resolve the condition before permanent damage occurs that leaves the client unable to achieve an erection in the future. Ice packs to the perineum will resolve some cases of the disorder. This is what the nurse should do first. The client does not need emergency surgery. The client may need blood aspirated from the penis. Heat should not be applied to the perineum.
