Answer to Question 1

Ans: D
Feedback:
Stress incontinence is caused by pelvic floor muscle weakness. Urge incontinence is the inability to suppress urination after sensing the need to do so; many physical and psychological issues can be related to this problem. Overflow incontinence is related to overdistention, or overflow, of the bladder. Causes of functional incontinence include environmental barriers, physical limitations, memory loss, and disorientation.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: C
Feedback:
Any invasive device that enters the body provides a portal of entry for microorganisms, thus increasing the chance for infection. Invasive devices are often used to treat illnesses. Urinary catheters or tubes placed in the GI tract for decompression or feeding also increase infection risk.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
