4. Which of the following situations is not a predominant reason for pulmonary artery aneurysms? (3)

  4. Swan-Ganz catheter.

  2. It is more frequent in men, with a mean age between 30 and 50 years.

  3. Allodynia and hyperalgesia associated with abnormal pain response are the most frequent symptoms.

  4. Its pathophysiology is characterized by central nervous system sensitization which affects peripheral nociception, triggering chronic pain.

  2. At a concentration of 1.25% it can potentially alter ciliary motility.

  3. It is a potent virucidal agent which inhibits neuroaminidase and hemagglutinin, blocking virus binding to cell receptors.

  4. All of the above are true.

8. So-called medication errors are associated with adverse events that can lead to increased patient morbidity and mortality in outpatient and inpatient settings. According to published studies on this topic, the phase in which they occur most commonly is: 5
