Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
A complete and private history is essential to pinpoint specific areas that require further investigation. The interview should include a review of function, signs, and symptoms.

Answer to Question 2

A
Other interventions for possible appendicitis may include bed rest and fluid and electrolyte replacement. Dehydration and anorexia causes fluid and electrolyte imbalances. Laxatives and enemas may cause perforation of the appendix. Heat can cause the appendix to rupture.
