Answer to Question 1

Answer: C

A urinalysis typically consists of the pH, glucose, specific gravity, protein, and WBC count. The pH, glucose and specific gravity are all within normal limits. A normal WBC is 0-4. The WBC count for this client is high and indicates infection.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: C

Alcohol increases the risk of pancreatitis. Antibiotics are used to prevent pyloric stenosis. Onions, caffeine, and spices increase the risk of GERD. Immunizations can prevent specific types of hepatitis.
