Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Lower blood volume will decrease MAP. The other answers are not accurate.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D, E
The UAP can raise the siderails of the bed for client safety and take and record the vital signs. Administering medications, ensuring a consent is on the chart, and marking the pulses for later comparison should be done by the registered nurse. This is also often done by the postanesthesia care nurse and is part of the hand-off report.
