Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, E
The cornerstone of obstetric triage is reassurance of maternal-fetal well-being. Thus, in view of the assessment data that the client provided, the nurse should ascertain membrane status and ask the client to come in for evaluation. The client has already indicated that the vaginal discharge was not bloody in nature. Having the client continue to monitor at home would not provide assurance of maternal-fetal well-being. Asking the client about the next scheduled physician visit does not address current health concerns of impending labor.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
HMG-CoA leads to a disruption of metabolic feedback mechanism and accumulation of end product (cholesterol) with the resulting condition of hypercholesterolemi a.
