Answer to Question 1

B
B. Elastic stockings are indicated for all clients with clotting disorders, fever, dehydration, pregnancy and/or first 6 weeks postpartum if the woman was confined to bed, or oral contraceptive use (especially if client smokes).
A. Elastic stockings are not necessarily indicated for a client with very large thighs.
C. Elastic stockings are not necessarily indicated for a client with a skin graft to the extremity.
D. Elastic stockings are not necessarily indicated for a client with a history of vertigo.

Answer to Question 2

Yankauer or tonsillar tip
A Yankauer, or tonsillar tip, suction device is used for oropharyngeal suctioning. This catheter is used instead of a standard suction catheter when oral secretions are extremely copious and thick, because it can handle large volumes of secretions better than a standard suction catheter can. The Yankauer suction catheter is angled to facilitate removal of secretions through a patient's mouth.

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
