Answer to Question 1

3
An incentive spirometer assists the patient with deep breathing exercises that can help prevent atelectasis. A client would not use an intermittent positive pressure breathing device without the presence of a nurse and/or respiratory therapist. Blow bottles are not a medical device used to prevent atelectasis. Postural drainage is a technique used to drain secretions from the lung lobes.

Answer to Question 2

1, 2, 3, 6
Modifiable risk factors can be changed or modified to help control hypertension. Smoking, diet, stress, and exercise can be changed to affect blood pressure. Persons with more risk factors have a greater chance of having hypertension during their lives. Family history and race cannot be modified.
