Answer to Question 1

A, B, C, D, E
Risk factors for development of renal calculi include uric acid crystals in urine, frequent bacterial urinary infections, prolonged immobility or bed rest, and a parathyroid gland tumor. Another risk factor includes inadequate fluid intake.

Answer to Question 2

speak; swallow
swallow; speak

The new technique does not rob the patients' ability to speak or swallow, which makes rehabili-tation easier.
