Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback:
The nurse should teach the parents how to use a glucagon or glucose emergency kit when the child is in a hypoglycemic condition. The nurse should instruct the parents to avoid chocolate bars to relieve the condition, because the high fat content prevents the quick release of glucose. Glucose should be placed between the lower lip and front teeth if the child is unconscious. The nurse may instruct the parents to carry and give simple carbohydrate snacks, such as peanut butter crackers or five to six pieces of hard candy.

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
