Answer to Question 1

ANS: 3
Behaviors of children indicating a possible visual deficit include self-stimulation such as eye rub-bing, body rocking, sniffing or smelling, and arm twirling. Poor balance and gait may indicate an impairment of position sense in the adult. A weight change may indicate a deficit in taste in the adult. Failure to respond to touch may indicate a touch deficit in the adult.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 3
The acutely ill client easily falls victim to sensory overload. The client in constant pain or who undergoes frequent monitoring of vital signs or who has irritation from drainage tubes is at risk.
