Answer to Question 1

Community-acquired pneumonia is an indication for NIV. NIV would not be recommended for patients with facial and head trauma, large amounts of secretions or thick secretions, or upper GI bleeding.

Answer to Question 2

D
Fibrocalcific pleural plaques are associated with asbestosis, not bronchogenic carcinoma.
