Answer to Question 1

A
Individuals who are codependent put the needs of others ahead of their own needs. This pattern of putting others first is a gift and a great liability. Nurses may risk losing their sense of boundaries when seeking approval to validate themselves.

Answer to Question 2

C, D, E
Physiological problems related to TBI can include headache, seizures, as well as appetite and weight changes. The remaining options, hypertension and respiratory infections, are not generally occasioned with TBI.
