Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
See Box 10-3 in the text for a list of conditions that reduce and elevate levels of exhaled nitric oxide.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
A reduction in cutaneous circulation will dramatically affect the measurement of transcutaneous partial pressure of oxygen (PtcO2). This situation is caused by hypothermia, septic shock, and ele-vated peripheral resistance. PtcO2 measurements have been shown to be reliable for neonates.
