Answer to Question 1

Answer: C

Obtaining postexposure prophylaxis treatment will best help the client's parents from acquiring HBV. The HBV vaccine is started concurrently. HBV is not spread in water. Alcohol abuse is implicated in non-viral hepatitis. Donating blood will not increase the risk of acquiring HBV.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: B, D, E

Although the exact cause is unknown, risk factors associated with BPH are increasing age, men of African-American descent, and a diet high in meat and fat. No link has been made to milk or exercise.
