Answer to Question 1

2,3,4
Rationale: A venous stasis ulcer would be better treated with a hydrocolloid dressing that can be molded to uneven body surfaces

Answer to Question 2

1,3,5
Rationale 1: Excess noise can cause increased respiratory and heart rates, diarrhea and digestive problems, and nausea. In clients with diseases of these systems, (congestive heart failure, Crohn's disease, and asthma), an increase in the symptoms could worsen their condition. The client with profound hearing loss will not be affected by noise that cannot be heard. Noise pollution has no direct bearing on eyesight.
