Answer to Question 1

ANS: 2, 3, 5, 6
Physical examination of a client experiencing CHF may reveal rapid weight gain, edema (espe-cially in dependent areas), hypertension, polyuria (if renal mechanisms are normal), neck vein distention, increased blood and venous pressure, crackles in lungs, and confusion. The remaining options are not reflective of CHF.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 1, 2, 3, 5, 6
Physical examination of a client experiencing diabetic ketoacidosis may reveal dry and sticky mucous membranes, flushed and dry skin, thirst, elevated body temperature, irritability, convul-sions, and coma. The remaining option is not reflective of diabetic ketoacidosis.
