Answer to Question 1

3
The highest risk group for testicular cancer is young men 15 to 35 years of age. TSE should be taught and performed monthly from the teenage years. The other choices are appropriate for the nurse to instruct the client.

Answer to Question 2

3
Complete range of motion against gravity with some resistance is graded as being 4 or good. Complete range of motion without gravity is graded as being 2 or poor. Complete range of motion against gravity without added resistance is graded as being 3 or fair. Complete range of motion against gravity with full resistance is graded as being 5 or normal.
