Answer to Question 1

B
Medical-surgical management includes administering vitamin E and eliminating caffeinated beverages from the client's diet; the cystic tissue may also be aspirated or excised for diagnostic or therapeutic reasons. Nursing care includes instructing the client about the condition, reducing her anxiety about the diagnosis, and emphasizing the importance of performing a self-breast-examination monthly.

Answer to Question 2

B
A calm, caring approach instills confidence in the client and the belief that the client's needs are important and assists to determine the client's understanding of why admission is necessary. Orienting a client to the room, nursing unit, and facility will help the client to be comfortable.
