Answer to Question 1

B
Radiographic contrast dye, pigments, aminoglycoside and cephalosporin antibiotics, and NSAIDs are all nephrotoxic and cause acute tubular necrosis.

Answer to Question 2

D
Reconstructive surgery can be used following curative surgery to reestablish function or to improve appearance. The nurse's role will largely depend on the location of the surgery and its desired effect but involves preparing the client for the procedure and the postoperative course and providing support to the client and family.
