Answer to Question 1

A
In addition to the relationship of infection and nutrition, the nurse may need to teach preoperative and postoperative procedures if the patient requires percutaneous or open surgical drainage.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
It is most likely an age-related change, as SBP often rises to 200 mm Hg or more during exercise in older adults. His blood pressure needs to be retaken after he has been resting.
