Answer to Question 1

D
Bishop scores between 5 and 9 indicate a 10 percent induction failure rate, or a 90 percent induction success. Low Bishop scores have been associated with failure of induction, prolonged labor, and higher cesarean section rates

Answer to Question 2

3
Rationale:
1. Potassium is an electrolyte. Didanosine does not affect potassium values.
2. Sodium is an electrolyte. Didanosine does not affect sodium values.
3. Didanosine causes bone marrow suppression with resulting anemia. Red blood cell counts are monitored at least monthly for changes.
4. Glucose is a laboratory test for checking diabetes. Didanosine does not affect glucose values.
