Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback
A If the hospital/clinic were within walking distance of the girl's home, it would
prevent the teen from missing appointments because of transportation problems.
B If the institution were open days, evenings, and Saturday by special arrangement,
this availability would be helpful for teens who work, go to school, or have other
time-of-day restrictions. Scheduling conflicts are a major barrier to health care.
C Whenever possible, the teen should be scheduled to see the same nurses and
practitioners for continuity of care.
D A negative attitude is unfortunate, because it discourages families that would
benefit most from consistent prenatal care.

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback
A Nasal discharge indicates that the child has a respiratory condition but does not
mean the child needs immediate attention.
B A productive cough is not a finding that indicates that the child requires
immediate attention.
C An oxygen saturation of 95 is a normal finding.
D One of the initial observations for triage is respiratory rate and effort. Grunting is
a sign of hypoxemia and represents the body's attempt to improve oxygenation
by generating positive end-expiratory pressure.

People with alcoholism are at a much greater risk of malnutrition than are other people and usually exhibit low levels of most vitamins (especially folic acid). This is because alcohol often takes the place of 50% of their daily intake of calories, with little nutritional value contained in it.

Did you know?

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.

The first war in which wide-scale use of anesthetics occurred was the Civil War, and 80% of all wounds were in the extremities.
