Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
Live, attenuated influenza vaccine (LAIV) contains live but attenuated (weakened) influenza virus. It is sprayed into the nostrils and is not appropriate for the older adult whose immune response is senescent.

Answer to Question 2

B
1:1,000 epinephrine promotes local vasoconstriction and reduced the possibility of bleeding. Epinephrine does act as a bronchodilator, but is used primarily for vasoconstriction post nasal surgery.
