Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Progressive vascular leakage and areas of atelectasis and emphysema develop in the lungs, and progressive pulmonary damage occurs. The chest radiograph for severe disease will show areas of atelectasis, emphysema, and fibrosis diffusely intermixed throughout the lung (Figure 34-5). Ar-terial blood gas measurements reveal varying degrees of hypoxemia and hypercapnia secondary to airway obstruction, air trapping, pulmonary fibrosis, and atelectasis.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
In the presence of meconium-stained amniotic fluid, once delivery is complete and if the infant is depressed and requires intubation for resuscitation, an endotracheal (ET) tube should be inserted immediately, and suction should be applied directly to the ET tube.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
