• No action needed at this time because patient is suffering from mild respiratory acidosis

which can be normal for a patient with severe COPD.

• Blurred vision with eye pain (optic neuritis) are the early symptoms of multiple sclerosis.

• a childbearing age woman reporting a craving for ice.

Rationale: Pica, the craving to eat unusual substances like ice or dirt is a common sign of iron-deficiency anemia.

• Prolonged activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT).

Rationale: Laboratory findings in patient with hemophilia include normal bleeding time and normal PT but the PTT, APTT, and coagulation time are prolonged. (Chapter 10, page 205).

• Answer is A, C, & E. (Chapter 12, page 241).
