Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Atropine is used for its ability to prevent vagal bradycardia associated with the electrical stimulus. The other options are neither relevant nor true.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
A goal of music therapy is to promote expression and social connection. The nurse should observe and document expression of feelings as they occur. The observations may be used later, as a basis for further consideration by the nurse and patient. The other options do not reflect aspects of the nurse's role in music therapy.
