Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Some drugs change the color of urine (e.g., phenazopyridineoran ge, riboflavinintense yellow). Eating beets, rhubarb, and blackberries causes red urine. Dark amber urine is the result of high concentrations of bilirubin in patients with liver disease.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Stress incontinence can be related to intraabdominal pressure causing urine leakage, as would happen during coughing or sneezing. Asking the patient about the fullness of the bladder would rule out retention and overflow. An inability to void completely can refer to urge incontinence. Physiological causes and medications can effect elimination, but this is not related to stress incontinence.
