Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Studies indicate that mustache and pendant systems may reduce oxygen supply use by 50. Many patients feel that mustache cannulas are heavier, larger, and more obvious. Pendant cannu-las can be concealed by the patient's clothing.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Oxygen is considered a type of medication. If a patient is exposed to large amounts for a long period of time, all of the aforementioned can occur except for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, which is considered a disease process not a complication.

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
