Answer to Question 1

ANS: 1, 2, 4, 5
Obstructive apnea causes a serious decline in arterial oxygen saturation level. Clients are at risk for cardiac dysrhythmias, right-sided heart failure, pulmonary hypertension, angina attacks, stroke, and hypertension. The other options are not directly related to a diminished supply of ar-terial oxygen.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 3, 4, 5, 6
Narcoleptics may be helped by brief daytime naps no longer than 20 minutes, a regular exercise program, avoiding shifts in sleep, eating light meals high in protein, practicing deep breathing, chewing gum, and taking vitamins. Clients with narcolepsy need to avoid factors that increase drowsiness (e.g., alcohol, heavy meals, exhausting activities, long-distance driving, and long pe-riods of sitting in hot, stuffy rooms).
