81. A 58-year-old man who is a construction worker comes to the office because of a 1-week history of pain on the right side of his head. One week ago, he says his head on a beam while carrying drywall to the second floor of a house under construction. He has had dry mouth, excessive thirst, and increased urinary fre during this period. His pulse is 120 /min, respirations are 25/min, and blood pressure is 120/65 mm Hg. Physical examination shows dry mouth and decrease turgor. Urine osmolality is 196 mOsmol/kg H₂O (N>287). An MRI of the brain shows a hyperintense sighal consistent with hemorrhage of the posterior pituitam This patient most likely has decreased renal reabsorption of which of the following? A) Chloride ions OB) Magnesium ions C) Potassium ions D) Sodium ions E) Water

A 23-year-old woman with a history of asthma was brought to the emergency department by ambulance. She was extremely short of breath. Her level of consciousness was diminished greatly, and she was only able to respond to questions with nods or one-word responses. She had a weak cough, with nearly inaudible breath sounds. After drawing blood gases, she was placed on supplemental oxygen. Vital signs: heart rate, 160 bpm; blood pressure, 120/84 mm Hg; temperature, 37°C; and respiratory rate, 36/min. Her initial blood gas and total hemoglobin results were as follows: pH = 7.330 pCO2 = 25 mm Hg pO2 = 58 mm Hg HCO3 = 13 mmol/L tHb = 12.4 g/L QUESTIONS: 4.
