Answer to Question 1

1
Rationale 1: Decreased amniotic fluid leaves less fluid for the fetus to use during fetal breathing movements, and results in pulmonary hypoplasia and respiratory difficulty.
Rationale 2: Hypertension has no relation to oligohydramnios.
Rationale 3: Heart murmur has no relation to oligohydramnios.
Rationale 4: Decreased temperature has no relation to oligohydramnios.

Answer to Question 2

Answer:2,3,4
Rationale:SIADH results from an excessive amount of serum antidiuretic hormone,causing water intoxication and hyponatremia.Intake and output should be monitored strictly.Diuretics such as furosemide (Lasix) are administered to eliminate excess body fluid,and urine specific gravity is monitored.Fluids are restricted to prevent further hemodilution.Daily weights should be obtained to monitor fluid balance.

It is believed that the Incas used anesthesia.
