Answer to Question 1

B
A urinary catheter would relieve urinary retention. Reducing fluids would reduce the amount of urine produced but would not alleviate the urine retention. Diuretic medication would increase urine production and may worsen the discomfort caused by urine retention. A renal angiogram is an inappropriate diagnostic test for urinary retention.

Answer to Question 2

D
The nurse would expect to find a client who is experiencing a sinus dysrhythmia at a rate of 82 beats per minute to have no clinical symptoms.
The client with atrial fibrillation may complain of fatigue or shortness of breath.
The client experiencing a sinus dysrhythmia would not be expected to complain of chest pain.
The client with atrial fibrillation may complain of a fluttering sensation in the chest.
