Answer to Question 1

1
Rationale:
1. Rapid changes in fluid and electrolyte balance during hemodialysis can lead to shock. Other complications to watch for are thromboses and infection.
2. Hypertension is not a clinical manifestation associated with hemodialysis.
3. Neutropenia is not a clinical manifestation associated with hemodialysis.
4. Headaches are not a clinical manifestation associated with hemodialysis.

Answer to Question 2

B
Maternal hypertension is the most significant contributing factor to the occurrence of placental abruption With abruption, the placenta separates prematurely from the uterine wall. Maternal hypertension increases the pressure within the vessels of the placenta, which encourages abruption.
