Answer:

A. Contact the provider to discuss an order for pretreatment laboratory work.

Explanation:

The drug manual indicates that this drug should be given with caution to elderly patients. Getting information about liver function before giving the drug establishes baseline data that can be compared with post-treatment data to determine whether the drug is affecting the liver. Giving the correct dose at the correct interval helps to minimize risk, but without baseline information, the effects cannot be determined. The drug is not contraindicated.

A client arrives at a public health clinic worried that she has breast cancer after finding a lump in her breast. When assessing
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

The lump is round and movable.

Explanation:

Lumps can occur in the left or right breast, or in both breasts. A breast lump may appear near the surface of the skin, deeper inside the breast tissue, or closer to the armpit area.

Fibrocystic breast disease, commonly called fibrocystic breasts or fibrocystic change, is a benign (noncancerous) condition in which the breasts feel lumpy. Fibrocystic breasts aren’t harmful or dangerous, but may be bothersome or uncomfortable for some women.

The lumps in fibrocystic breasts tend to fluctuate in size throughout the month and are usually movable. But sometimes if there’s a lot of fibrous tissue, the lumps may be more fixed in one place.
