Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
The simple mask requires a minimum oxygen flow rate of 6 LPM to prevent carbon dioxide buildup.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
The nurse should inform the client that vasectomy is a relatively easy procedure with few complications. Regular sperm counts following a vasectomy are important. Reversals (reattaching the vas deferens) of vasectomies are not uncommon, but these are often unsuccessful. The client should use birth-control measures until his sperm count remains at zero for 6 weeks.
