Answer to Question 1

B
The child will not understand what a clean-catch urine specimen is, so the nurse should explain to the child what is needed. The nurse should discover what term the child uses for urination, because the other terms may also be meaningless. Catheterization is unnecessary.

Answer to Question 2

A, B, D
Forceful vomiting, shrill cry, and inability to move normally would be clues to a possible hemorrhage. All babies are strabismic, and equal pupils are not an indicator of hemorrhage.
