Which urinalysis result should the nurse anticipate for a child admitted with acute glomerulonephritis?
- A. Bacteriuria and increased specific gravity
- B. Hematuria and proteinuria
- C. Proteinuria and decreased specific gravity
- D. Bacteriuria and hematuria
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: In acute glomerulonephritis, the glomeruli become inflamed, leading to the leakage of red blood cells (hematuria) and proteins (proteinuria) into the urine. These are hallmark findings in this condition due to the damage to the glomerular filtration barrier. Bacteriuria, presence of bacteria in the urine, is not typically associated with acute glomerulonephritis unless there is a concurrent urinary tract infection. Specific gravity may be normal or decreased due to the loss of proteins in the urine, rather than increased. Therefore, the correct anticipated urinalysis result for a child with acute glomerulonephritis is hematuria and proteinuria.

A newborn's parents are being taught about ways to prevent sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). Which of the following instructions should be included?
- A. Place the infant in a prone position to sleep.
- B. Allow the infant to sleep on a large pillow.
- C. Use a soft mattress in the infant's crib.
- D. Give the infant a pacifier at bedtime.
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct instruction to prevent SIDS is to give the infant a pacifier at bedtime. The use of a pacifier while the infant is sleeping is associated with a decreased risk of SIDS. Other recommended preventive measures include placing the infant on their back to sleep, using a firm mattress in the crib, and avoiding soft bedding or pillows.
Which statement should the nurse include in the teaching plan for a patient being started on levodopa/carbidopa (Sinemet) for newly diagnosed Parkinson’s disease?
- A. Take medication on a full stomach
- B. Change positions slowly
- C. The drug may cause the urine to be very dilute
- D. Carbidopa has many adverse effects
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Postural hypotension is common early in treatment, so the patient should be instructed to change positions slowly. Administration with meals should be avoided, if possible, because food delays the absorption of the levodopa component. If the patient is experiencing side effects of nausea and vomiting, administration with food may be considered. The levodopa component may darken urine. Carbidopa has no adverse effects of its own.
