Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
This urine output is normal, demonstrating that the goals for the diagnosis of risk for fluid volume deficit have been met. The other outcomes are demonstrative of met goals, but do not take priority over a possible fluid volume deficit.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
This child's complaint sounds like oral thrush. Often seen in infants, it can also be caused by inhaler use in children with asthma. The other questions are not related.
