2. A videorecorder to pick up unusual respirations and movement

Answer to Question 1

1
Rationale: Units of cryoprecipitate are kept frozen, and must be thawed prior to infusion

Answer to Question 2

2
Rationale: The client likely will be observed by videocamera to note movement and to pick up unusual breathing noises. Clients are not given IV dyes for a sleep study, and their temperatures are not monitored during sleep. If the iPod is allowed, it would be brought to the study by the client to help fall asleep.
