Answer to Question 1

Answer: C

Depression can cause chronic fatigue. Compliance with medications results in relief of depression and therefore increases energy levels. Shopping, spending time with friends, and increasing exercise levels will not help the client who is clinically depressed.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: C

Blood in the urine is fairly common after surgery. The healing period after prostate surgery is 4-8 weeks, and the client should avoid strenuous activity during this time. Continued increase in fluid intake will help the urine to remain dilute and reduce the risk of clot formation. The client should not drive after surgery for at least 2 weeks.
