Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Many medications used for hypertension can cause erectile dysfunction. More information is needed regarding the specific medications. The other assessment data will not impact erectile function (recent knee surgery) or are normal for a 70-year-old man (physical exam data and vital signs).

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Clear penile discharge may be indicative of a sexually transmitted infection (STI). The other findings are normal and do not need to be reported.
