Answer to Question 1

4
Long-term use of hydrogen ion antagonists may lead to vitamin B-12 deficiency because they decrease the absorption of the vitamin. The other choices are severe adverse effects of proton pump inhibitor medications.

Answer to Question 2

3
Elderly patients have a greater capillary refill time due to aging. Capillary refill greater than 5 seconds is significant. Capillary refill in non-elderly clients should be 3 seconds. Capillary refill in a non-elderly client of 4 seconds would be an abnormal finding. Capillary refill of 6 seconds for all clients is an abnormal assessment finding.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
