Answer to Question 1

C
Polysomnography is used to determine the number and length of apnea episodes and sleep stages, number of arousals, airflow, respiratory effort, and oxygen desaturation.

Answer to Question 2

D
Educational needs between the two patients will differ. Group discussion is only effective when the goals of the education plan are the same for all patients involved. A patient newly diagnosed with diabetes will require education on topics that are potentially well known to a patient diagnosed years ago.
