Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
For infection control, the nurse uses universal precautions, including wearing gloves when collecting urine samples. The baby's skin should be clean and dry; powder will cause the bag to not adhere. The other answers are appropriate, but infection control and safety come first.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Hemolytic uremic syndrome is most often associated with children eating undercooked meat and is the most common cause of acute renal failure in the pediatric population. Tylenol overdose is associated with liver failure.
