Answer to Question 1

Answer: C

Oxybutynin is an anticholinergic that reduces urgency and frequency by blocking muscarinic receptors in the detrusor muscle of the bladder, thereby inhibiting contractions and increasing storage capacity. The nurse would anticipate an order for oxybutynin. Furosemide is a diuretic and works in a specific place within the nephron to increase fluid excretion and prevent fluid reabsorption. Bumetanide is a diuretic and works in a specific place within the nephron to increase fluid excretion and prevent fluid reabsorption. Bethanechol chloride is a cholinergic agent that stimulates bladder contraction and facilitates voiding.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: A

Hepatitis A (HAV) and hepatitis E (HEV) are transmitted by the fecal-oral route. Hepatitis C (HCV) is transmitted blood and body fluids. Hepatitis B (HBV) and hepatitis D (HDV) are transmitted by blood, body fluids, and perinatal routes.
