Answer to Question 1
D
A side effect is a predictable and often unavoidable secondary effect produced at a usual therapeutic dose. Toxic effects are capable of causing injury or death. They often develop after prolonged intake of a medication or when a medication accumulates in the blood because of impaired metabolism or excretion. Some medications cause unpredictable effects, such as idiosyncratic reactions, in which a patient overreacts or underreacts to a medication or has a reaction different from what is expected. Sudden constriction of bronchiolar muscles, edema of the pharynx and larynx, and severe wheezing and shortness of breath all characterize severe or anaphylactic reactions.
Answer to Question 2
B
A warm moist compress improves circulation, relieves edema, and promotes concentration of pus and drainage. Warm soaks involve the immersion of a body part in a warmed solution that promotes circulation, lessens edema, increases muscle relaxation, and allows application of medicated solution. The patient who has had rectal surgery or an episiotomy during childbirth or who has painful hemorrhoids or vaginal inflammation will benefit from a sitz bath, a bath in which only the pelvic area is immersed in warm fluid. Cold moist compresses are used to relieve inflammation and swelling.
