Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
An anterior and posterior colporrhaphy tightens the anterior and posterior vaginal wall, and the supportive tissue between the vagina and bladder is folded and sutured to bring the bladder and urethra into proper position. Removal of the uterus through the vagina refers to a vaginal hysterectomy. Exercises to strengthen the bladder muscles are called Kegel exercises. Plastic devices inserted to provide support are called pessaries.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback
A Safety is the primary issue. School personnel need to be aware of the signs and
symptoms of hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia and the appropriate interventions.
B Privacy is not a life-threatening concern.
C The treatment of type 1 diabetes should not interfere with the school-age child's
development of a sense of industry.
D Peer group acceptance, along with body image, are issues for the early adolescent
with type 1 diabetes. This is not of greater priority than the child's safety.
