Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, C, D, E
Cromolyn is effective for asthma prophylaxis; in patients with food allergies to prevent GI reactions; in patients with allergic rhinitis, eczema, and other forms of dermatitis; in patients with chronic urticaria; and in asthma patients with postexercise bronchospasm. This drug should not be used to manage acute attacks of asthma.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A, B, C, D
Failure of an IV to infuse properly warrants the following nursing actions: check for bent tubing, needle against vein wall, or small clot at needle end; the IV pole may be too low, or the needle may be out of the vein and infiltrated.
