The nurse is teaching a group of menopausal women about the signs and symptoms of menopause and how they can get relief. One of the main concerns of the group is vaginal dryness and difficult intercourse.
 
  What is the reason the nurse will give for this? 1. The loss of cervical gland function leads to dryness of the mucous membranes of the vagina.
  2. The vaginal pH increases, and the number of Doderlein's bacilli decreases.
  3. The uterine lining thins and the muscle layer atrophies.
  4. The labia shrink and lose their pigmentation.

Question 2

Before applying a cord clamp, the nurse assesses the umbilical cord. The mother asks why the nurse is doing this. The nurse should reply, I'm checking the blood vessels in the cord to see whether it has:
 
  1. One artery and one vein.
  2. Two arteries and one vein.
  3. Two veins and one artery.
  4. Two arteries and two veins..

The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
