Answer to Question 1

Answer: D

The client is snoring at home, which could indicate obstructive sleep apnea. Insomnia is the absence of sleep. There is not enough information to determine if the client is depressed or has a thyroid disorder.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: A, C, D

Unfortunately, many clients with prostate cancer remain undiagnosed until the cancer is well established. Hematuria, back pain, bilateral lower extremity weakness, and fatigue are symptoms associated with prostate cancer.
