Answer to Question 1

4
Liver disease effects the fluid and electrolyte status by causing ascites, edema, hypokalemia, hypocalcemia, and hyponatremia. Liver disease does not cause hyperkalemia, hypercalcemia, or hypernatremia.

Answer to Question 2

4
Symmetrical joint involvement is seen with rheumatoid arthritis, not osteoarthritis. Bouchard's nodes, Heberden's nodes and crepitus are all assessment findings consistent with osteoarthritis.
