A nurse is monitoring a client who is 12 hr postoperative following a colectomy. Which of the following findings should the nurse report to the provider?

a. Maintain the client on bed rest: While rest may be indicated in some cases, it is not a specific intervention for managing renal stones with a urinary catheter.

b. Strain the client's urine through a mesh filter: Straining urine is essential to collect any stones that may have passed, allowing for analysis and identification.

c. Encourage fluid intake of 1500 mL/day: Adequate fluid intake is crucial to prevent stone formation, but the amount may vary depending on the client's specific needs and condition.

d. Clamp the urinary catheter every 2 hr: Clamping the urinary catheter is not a standard

intervention for managing renal stones. Straining the urine for stone collection is a more relevant intervention.

a. "The pain radiates down to my lower back." This statement is not typical of peptic ulcer

disease. Radiation of pain to the lower back may suggest other abdominal or musculoskeletal issues.

b. "I feel so much better after eating." Relief of pain after eating is more indicative of gastric ulcer rather than peptic ulcer disease. Peptic ulcers are often associated with pain that worsens after eating.

c. "My pain is relieved by having a bowel movement." Relief of pain with bowel movements is

not a characteristic finding of peptic ulcer disease. This may suggest other gastrointestinal issues.

d. "The pain is worse after I eat a meal high in fat." This statement is consistent with peptic ulcer disease. High-fat meals stimulate gastric acid secretion, potentially exacerbating the pain

associated with peptic ulcers.
