Answer to Question 1

D
In the oliguric phase of acute renal failure, fluid needs are the amount of output (urine, vomitus, and diarrhea) plus 500 mL per day. The amount cannot be based on an arbitrary figure or body weight because the ability of the kidneys to produce urine varies greatly between patients.

Answer to Question 2

A
Patients with acute renal failure who do not need dialysis have lower protein needs than patients receiving hemodialysis because hemodialysis patients lose protein during treatments. Protein is not lost in the urine and so protein needs are not affected by the volume of urine produced.
