Answer to Question 1

A
The presence of white blood cells in urine indicates a urinary tract infection. Difficulty with urinary elimination indicates blockage or renal damage. Increased blood pressure is associated with renal disease or damage and some medications. Abnormal blood sugars would be seen in someone with ketones in the urine, as this finding indicates diabetes.

Answer to Question 2

D
The Neuman systems model is based on an individual's/family's/community's relationship to stress and the reaction to stress. This model promotes wellness on primary, secondary, and tertiary levels. The other items listed as models are not nursing theories. Ego defense mechanisms are unconscious coping mechanisms. Situational refers to factors such as relocation or family job changes that are stressors. Evidence-based practice consists of relying on data or other reputable information sources to guide nursing care.
