Answer to Question 1

4. Cardiomyopathy

Rationale:
Hypertension places the client at risk for development of cardiomyopathy. Hypertension has not been associated with metabolic syndrome, diabetes, or gastritis.

Answer to Question 2

3. I will let him do his homework while he is watching his favorite television show..

Rationale:
This child should do homework in a quiet environment, away from distractions. Giving ADHD medication with meals will help counteract anorexia associated with this medication. Maintaining the same daily routine helps the child know expectations, and a nighttime routine helps counteract insomnia. Children with ADHD should be screened regularly for height and weight to monitor growth.
