Answer to Question 1

A
The most important outcome for a client in the extremely manic phase would be that the client remain safe and physically supported. This outcome is most important because a client in a manic state may participate in activities that could be harmful to him- or herself or others. Also, the excitation of a manic state would interfere with the client taking time to address other basic needs such as the need for food and water. Ultimately, nursing interventions would be directed at addressing these problems.

Answer to Question 2

C

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
