The urinalysis results show a specific gravity of 1.010, which is lower than the normal range of 1.010-1.030. This indicates dilute urine, which is expected with diuretic use and adequate fluid intake. Therefore, the answer should be "yes," but since it is asking if the patient is expected to produce this urine, the answer is "no" as it is within the expected parameters.
