Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Signs and symptoms of hypovolemia include dry skin and mucous membranes, depressed blood pressure, elevated pulse, oliguria, decreasing central venous pressure (CVP), and deep rapid respirations.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Vasodilators such as Nipride and nitroglycerin relax smooth muscle and cause peripheral dilation, which results in lowered blood pressure.
