Answer to Question 1

change in color
You assess the chemical properties of urine by immersing a special, chemically prepared strip of paper into a clean urine specimen, or by combining drops of urine with chemically prepared tablets. The change in color of the strip or tablet indicates the presence of glucose, ketones, protein, and blood as well as pH of the urine.

Answer to Question 2

C
Inclusion of a review of mental status is highly recommended when the nurse performs an examination of an older adult. Allow extra time, and be patient, relaxed, and unhurried with older adults. Do not assume that aging is always accompanied by illness or disability. Older adults are able to adapt to change and to maintain functional independence. Provide adequate space for an examination, particularly if the patient uses a mobility aid.
