Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Hyperventilation and respiratory alkalosis, discomfort secondary to inadequate pain control, pulmonary barotrauma, exacerbation of bronchospasm, and fatigue are the hazards and complica-tions of incentive spirometry.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
There is a direct relationship between the spontaneous respiratory rate and the degree of atelecta-sis present. Typically, as the atelectasis progresses, the respiratory rate increases proportionally.
