Answer to Question 1

Ans: C
Certain drugs cause the urine to change color. Diuretics can lighten the color of urine to pale yellow. The nurse should inform the client about this side effect of the medication.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: D
Various diagnostic procedures, typically performed in a hospital operating room or outpatient facility, are used to study the urinary system. Nurses are responsible for preparing the client and giving aftercare. Explaining the procedure helps reduce the client's anxiety.
