Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
It is necessary to assess the respiratory status and lung sounds for signs of bronchospasm related to hypersensitivity after lidocaine administration. An audible wheeze is suggestive of bronchospasm. Pleural pain, audible S3, and hemoptysis are less likely to be a direct result of hypersensitivity.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin that plays an important role in calcium and bone metabolism. Vitamin C, ferrous sulfate, and vitamin B12 do not play a role in calcium and bone metabolism.
