D. Experiencing multiple stressors simultaneously can overwhelm an individual's coping resources and make it more difficult to effectively manage stress. Coping with multiple stressors can lead to feelings of being overwhelmed, heightened anxiety, and decreased ability to cope with each stressor individually.
A. Undergoing a biopsy can be a stressful experience due to uncertainty about the results and fear of the procedure itself. However, the level of difficulty in coping with this stressor can vary among individuals depending on factors such as their coping mechanisms, social support, and previous experiences with medical procedures.
B. Relocating to an assisted-living facility can be a significant life transition, involving changes in living arrangements, loss of independence, and adjustment to a new environment. This stressor can be particularly challenging for individuals who have strong attachments to their current living situation or who are facing health-related issues that necessitate the move.
C. Understanding and researching the stressor can sometimes help individuals cope better by providing knowledge and a sense of control. However, this does not necessarily make coping with the stressor easier, especially if the stressor itself is significant or if the individual lacks adequate support or resources to manage it effectively.

B. A PICC line is a long, flexible catheter inserted into a peripheral vein, typically in the upper arm, and advanced until the tip lies in the superior vena cava or the cavoatrial junction. PICC lines are suitable for long-term venous access and are often used for administering medications, including antibiotics, over several weeks or months. They offer stable and reliable access, reducing the need for frequent venipunctures.

A. Butterfly needles are typically used for short-term venous access, such as for blood draws or administering medications that do not require long-term therapy. They are not suitable for prolonged use or for administering medications over several weeks, as they are not designed for secure and stable access over an extended period.
C. A peripheral IV-lock, also known as a saline lock or heplock, is a short catheter inserted into a peripheral vein and then capped off for intermittent use. While peripheral IV-locks are suitable for short-term venous access, they are not ideal for prolonged therapy lasting several weeks. Additionally, they may not provide the necessary stability and reliability for administering IV antibiotics over an extended period.
D. A small gauge peripheral angiocath refers to a short catheter inserted into a peripheral vein for intravenous access. While a larger gauge catheter, such as a 16-gauge, may allow for faster infusion rates and is suitable for certain situations requiring rapid fluid administration, it may not be the most appropriate choice for long-term IV antibiotic therapy. The choice of gauge depends on factors such as the client's vein size, the viscosity of the medication, and the duration of therapy.
