Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Hypnic headache is an exclusively nocturnal headache in older adults. These headaches typically are worsened by lying down and usually lack the qualities of migraine headaches.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, B, C, D, E
Therapeutic effects of treatment for spasticity are evidenced as increased ability to maintain pos-ture and balance, increased ability for self-care, improvement in strength and muscle tone, im-proved coordination, and ease of movement. Skeletal muscle relaxants are used to minimize or stop unwanted spasm and spasticity, with the ultimate goal of establishing normal muscle tone and function.
