Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Anaerobic cultures require immediate attention because exposure to room air may kill the anaerobes in a few minutes.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
SEP is used to measure neural pathways and involves the placement of recording electrodes over peripheral nerves or the scalp or ears. These measurements taken preoperatively can assist in the diagnosis of acoustic neuroma.
