Answer to Question 1

B
Quality is whether the murmur is blowing, grating, or harsh. Intensity is the loudness graded on a scale of 1 through 6; the higher the number, the louder is the murmur. Timing is the place in the cardiac cycle (systole/diastole). Pitch is whether the tone is high or low.

Answer to Question 2

A, B, D, E
Oversedation can result in a multitude of complications. Prolonged deep sedation is associated with significant complications of immobility, including pressure ulcers, thromboemboli, gastric ileus, nosocomial pneumonia, and delayed weaning from mechanical ventilation.
