A mechanically ventilated newborn infant is undergoing gastroschisis repair during halothane anesthesia. Based on the right radial artery catheter tracing shown, which of the following is the most appropriate conclusion?
(A) The abdomen has not yet been incised
(B) The anesthetic should be changed from halothane to isoflurane
A 72-year-old man has massive venous hemorrhage during a radical prostatectomy. Blood pressure decreases from 110/60 to 75/30 mmHg and central venous pressure decreases from 12 to 4 mmHg. PetC02 decreases from 34 to 24 mmHg during constant minute ventilation. The most appropriate next step should be to
(A) apply positive end-expiratory pressure to the breathing circuit
(B) attempt to aspirate air from the central venous catheter
(C) expand intravascular volume
(D) place the patient in the Trendelenburg position
(E) turn the patient to the left lateral decubitus position
A 2.3-kg 1-day-old term infant requires repair of a gastroschisis. Which of the following combinations is most appropriate for intraoperative fluid management?

(B) Dextrose 10% in water for maintenance and lactated Ringer's solution for replacement of third space losses
(C) Lactated Ringer's solution for maintenance and replacement of third space losses
(D) Lactated Ringer's solution for maintenance and albumin 5% for replacement of third space losses
(E) Normal saline solution for maintenance and lactated Ringer's solution for replacement of third space losses
