Answer to Question 1

3
The clinical features of hemophilia include joint and muscle hemorrhages. The weight-bearing joints are most frequently affected. The nurse should assess the client for muscle and joint pain, which occurs with bleeding. Appetite, urine output, and respiratory rate are not specifically affected by hemophilia.

Answer to Question 2

1, 2, 5, 6
The emergency management of chest pain follows the memory aid MONA; that is, morphine, oxygen, nitroglycerin, and aspirin. An indwelling urinary catheter and positioning the client on the left side are not interventions for the emergency management of chest pain.

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.
