Answer to Question 1

1, 2
Feedback
1. The location of the urethral meatus has a risk of laceration during a circumcision, thus creating damage to the urethral opening.
2. The damage to the urethral meatus will cause intense bleeding and require significant repair.
3. The circumcision is not an option for this child because of the further damage that could occur to the urethral meatus.
4. A circumcision should not be done after the repair because of the risk for further damage.
Many males are not circumcised, and this should be discussed with the mother.

Answer to Question 2

2, 3, 4, 5
Feedback
1. This type of dialysis is more invasive than what the patient will need to treat this disease.
2. Hemodialysis will be needed to filter out waste products for the patient.
3. A blood transfusion may be needed because the patient is at risk for anemia.
4. The patient is at risk for seizures, so preventative measures may be needed.
5. Close monitoring of blood pressure is required because of the vascular changes which occur with the disease.

Did you know?

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
