Answer to Question 1

A
The bladder needs to be emptied, to avoid urinary strain and retention. An overfilled bladder will interfere with uterine involution. If she is unable to void and her bladder is so overfilled as to displace the uterus, it is doubtful the client will experience an urge to void. Medicating and forcing fluids will not address the problem of bladder distention.

Answer to Question 2

B
As the most common form of dwarfism, shortened limbs and a normal-length torso are characteristic of achondroplasia. Hyperelasticity of the skin, hyperflexible joints, and poor wound healing are characteristics of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. Skeletal abnormalities including arachnodactyly and scoliosis are characteristic of Marfan syndrome. Multiple soft tumors and caf-au-lait spots are characteristic of neurofibromatosis.
