Answer:

Otitis media is generally caused by dysfunction of the Eustachian tube, which can be due to Pharyngitis.

Explanation:

The otitis media is an infection or inflammation of the middle ear and is mostly caused by the inflammation of the mucous membranes in the nasopharynx leading to dysfunction of the Eustachian tube. This can be caused due to a upper respiratory tract viral infection or streptococcal pharyngitis (strep throat) or due to some allergy.

Pharyngitis or sore throat is a type of inflammation caused by upper respiratory tract viral infection.

Therefore, Otitis media can be caused by Pharyngitis and thus it is associated with it.

kolezko [41]

The finding that suggests that the client's catheter is occluded is that the client reports bladder spasms and the urge to urinate.

<h3 /><h3>Why would this finding suggest occlusion?</h3>

The client in question has a catheter. This means that the client should not have issues urinating through this tube. The spasms indicate the bladder continuously attempting to void its contents, this together with the irritation and urge to urinate indicates that the tube may very well be occluded and thus not allowing the flow of urine.

Therefore, we can confirm that the finding that suggests that the client's catheter is occluded is that the client reports bladder spasms and the urge to urinate.

Hormone that does not cause vasoconstriction?
oee [108]

Answer:

The correct answer is option C-ANP (Atrial natriuretic peptide).

Explanation:

Vasoconstriction is the narrowing of the blood vessels which can stop or block the blood flow.

Vasoconstriction reduces the urine formation during stress conditions through the action of hormones like ADH (anti-diuretic hormone), norepinephrine, epinephrine and angiotensin II produced via the sympathetic nervous system.

The atrial natriuretic hormone (ANP) is a cardiac hormone produced to lower the blood pressure or reduce blood plasma through vasodilation, increased vascular permeability and increase renal excretion.  

Thus, option C is the correct answer.
