Answer to Question 1

C
The nurse should recognize major cardiovascular risk factors for the client: age, gender, heredity, smoking, dyslipidemia, high blood pressure, physical inactivity, obesity, diabetes mellitus, and response to stress. Additional risk factors for women include menopause, use of birth control pills, and high triglyceride levels.

Answer to Question 2

A
Vaginal bleeding is an early symptom of endometrial cancer; later symptoms are similar to those of cervical cancer. Women at risk include those who are postmenopausal and taking estrogen replacement therapy, who have never had sexual intercourse, who have never borne a child, or who are Caucasian.
