Answer to Question 1

a

Answer to Question 2

C
Respiratory support should be implemented for the respiratory depression, which most frequently is exhibited in a patient with a blood alcohol level of 0.45.
The patient displays no symptoms that require CPR.
Intravenous fluids would not address the respiratory depression that occurs with a 0.45 blood alcohol level.
Naloxone is indicated for opiate overdose, not alcohol abuse.
