Answer to Question 1

B
Low-density lipoproteins are responsible for the formation of atherosclerosis or the disease of the arteries in which fatty lesions called atheromatous plaques develop inside the wall of the arteries.

Answer to Question 2

1. I will need to review your assessment with the physician first..

Rationale:
The client's inability to achieve comfort will need to be reported to the physician. The reported manifestations are consistent with appendicitis. The use of heat to manage the client is contraindicated due to the risk of perforation. Advising the client that no medications are available at this time and encouraging rest do not meet the concerns being presented by the client.
