Answer to Question 1

2. Risk for Deficient Fluid Volume

Rationale:
The rise in blood pressure could be a precursor to a fluid shift from intravascular to extravascular spaces seen in preeclampsia. The client would be at risk for fluid volume deficit. Not enough information is provided to determine if the client is experiencing fluid volume overload. There is no information to support ineffective coping or anxiety in the client.

Answer to Question 2

1. Most men affected are young or middle adulthood.

Rationale:
Men who are in young to middle adulthood are affected two to three times more than women of that age. The frequency of the occurrence of renal stones is greatest in the southern and midwestern states of America.
