Explanation:
(A) The nasal discharge could be due to a cold. It is necessary to gather additional assessment data to identify a possible cerebrospinal fluid leak. (B) If the discharge is cerebrospinal fluid, it would not be safe to encourage the girl to blow her nose. (C) Cerebrospinal fluid is positive for sugar; mucus is not. (D) Turning her to her side will have no effect on her "runny nose." It is necessary to gather further assessment data.

Explanation
(A) Reverse Trendelenburg position increases pressure on the perineum. This position will not relieve cord pressure. (B) Fowler's position increases perineal pressure. Cord pressure would not be relieved. (C) Trendelenburg position will decrease perineal pressure. Cord compression will be decreased and increase in fetal blood flow occurs. (D) Sims' position does not relieve pressure on cord or perineum.

(A) Clients who have obstruction in the biliary tract so that bile is not released into the duodenum experience a change in stools from brown to gray or clay colored. (B) This type of stool can occur with other GI problems, such as bacterial or viral infections, and other disease problems, and is not a common finding with biliary obstructions such as cholecystitis and cholelithiasis. (C) This type of stool is usually associated with a GI or bowel problem, such as lower GI bleeding, rather than with biliary obstructions. (D) This type of stool is usually associated with a GI or bowel problem, such as upper GI bleeding, rather than with biliary obstructions.

Explanation
(A) A weight gain of 10 lb represents a state of overhydration. (B) He is losing fluids through insensible losses; a urine output equal to his intake indicates that he is receiving too little fluids. (C) A urine output greater than his intake indicates that he is receiving adequate fluid resuscitation to account for urinary and insensible losses. (D) A blood pressure of 94/62 indicates a state of underhydration and inadequate circulatory volume.

Explanation:
(A) Cranberry juice helps to maintain urine acidity, thereby retarding bacterial growth. (B) A generous fluid intake will help to irrigate the bladder and to prevent bacterial growth within the bladder. (C) Hand washing is an effective means of preventing pathogen transmission. (D) Restricting fluid intake would contribute to urinary stasis, which in turn would contribute to bacterial growth.
