Answer to Question 1

2
Principle of Glasser's reality therapy

Answer to Question 2

A
Hypoxia can cause mental and behavioral changes that can be mistaken for anxiety, including restlessness, disorganization, and confusion. Therefore, further assessment is needed before assuming that the signs noted here are due to anxiety. A simple check for hypoxia is pulse oximetry, and this should be checked immediately any time hypoxia is a possibility. It would be premature to attempt any of the other interventions here until hypoxia was ruled in or out as the likely cause of this patient's presentation.
