Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
During extensive surgery the body is subjected to physiologic stress. Bleeding, tissue trauma, potent drugs, large extravascular fluid shifts, multiple transfusions, surgical positions that can inhibit breathing and circulation. All of these can contribute to altered physiology.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: T
The patient is anesthetized and intubated on the transport cart before they are moved to the OR bed in the prone position. If a urinary catheter is necessary, it is placed while on the transport cart.
