The nurse will document this condition as: 1. Hypospadias b. If the FNP wants to obtain the best estimate of renal function, which test should the nurse monitor? 1. Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) b. A 54 year old male with a long history of smoking complains of excessive tiredness, shortness of breath, and overall ill feelings. Lab results reveal decreased pH, increased CO2, and normal bicarbonate ion. These findings help to confirm the diagnosis of: 1. Respiratory acidosis b.
