Answer to Question 1

B

Feedback
A Dextrose 5 in water is an isotonic solution.
B Dextrose 10 in water is a hypertonic solution.
C A 0.9 sodium chloride solution is isotonic.
D Lactated Ringer's solution is an isotonic solution.

Answer to Question 2

D
In the PACU, the client is often drowsy. The effects of anaesthetic agents subdue the client's level of consciousness and neurological function.
Normally during the immediate recovery phase in the PACU, faint or absent bowel sounds are auscultated in all four quadrants. Clients who have had abdominal surgery may develop paralytic ileus, with a return of bowel sounds 24 to 48 hours later.
The acute incisional pain experienced in this stage of recovery is usually not relieved with non-invasive comfort measures, but will recover with pharmacological measures of pain relief.
Depending on the surgery, a client may not regain voluntary control over urinary function for six to eight hours after anaesthesia.
