Answer to Question 1

C
Manifestations of syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone (SIADH) include hyponatremia, water retention, weight gain, concentrated urine, muscle cramps, and weakness.

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback:
If the infant becomes unconscious, the rescuer performs cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). A nurse does not sweep a finger inside the infant's throat unless the object is visible. Nurses should not waste time giving chest thrusts or giving back slaps to an infant when the infant is unconscious.
