Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
The nurse needs 90 to 120 mL, not 30 to 60 mL, 60 to 90mL, or 120 to 150 mL of urine for the labeled specimen container.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
Talipes is also known as clubfoot, in which one or both feet turn out of the normal position. Early diagnosis and treatment usually yield an excellent prognosis, and exercise, corrective shoes, braces, casts, and surgery also may be helpful. Undergoing surgery for shunt placement occurs with hydrocephalus and wearing a triple diaper is an intervention for congenital dislocated hip. Tying a suture around a useless extra appendage occurs with polydactylism.
