Answer to Question 1

A, B, D, E
Mechanical ventilation for respiratory failure can alter kidney function. Positive-pressure ventilation reduces blood flow to the kidney, lowers the glomerular filtration rate, and decreases urine output. Kidney failure increases inflammation, causes the lung vasculature to become more permeable, and contributes to the development of acute respiratory distress syndrome.

Answer to Question 2

A, B, E, F
More than likely the patient with hyperglycemia will be fluid volume depleted and tachycardic.
