Answer to Question 1

Answer:3
Rationale: Tachycardia is a sign of congestive heart failure because the heart attempts to improve cardiac output by beating faster.Bradycardia is a serious sign and can indicate impending cardiac arrest.Blood pressure does not increase in CHF,and the weight,instead of decreasing,increases because of retention of fluids.

Answer to Question 2

1,2,4,5
Rationale 1: Decisions about contraception should take into consideration any contraindications the patient might have.
