A nurse is preparing to insert an indwelling urinary catheter for a client.Which of the following actions should the nurse plan to take?

Choice A rationale

Neobladder urinary diversion involves creating an internal reservoir or pouch from a segment of the intestine to store urine. This new bladder is then connected to the urethra, enabling the client to void through the urethra. This method closely mimics natural urination, allowing the client to have some control over urination.

Choice B rationale

This is incorrect because a neobladder is designed to allow the client to control urination. While there might be a learning curve for the client to adapt to the new bladder, the ultimate goal is to achieve continence.

Choice C rationale

This describes an ileal conduit, another type of urinary diversion, where a stoma is created on the abdomen for urine to pass into an external bag. The neobladder does not involve a stoma for urination.

Choice D rationale

This is incorrect as it pertains to an ileal conduit or urostomy. Clients with a neobladder do not require an external collection bag since urine is stored internally in the constructed bladder and can be passed through the urethra. .

Choice A rationale

Collecting two stool specimens from the same area of the stool is incorrect because specimens should be taken from different areas to ensure a representative sample of the stool for testing.

Choice B rationale

Using toilet paper to transfer the stool specimen is not recommended as it can contaminate the sample and interfere with test results.

Choice C rationale

Applying four drops of developing solution to each stool specimen is incorrect. The usual procedure involves applying a specific number of drops as indicated by the test instructions, which may vary.

Choice D rationale

Waiting 30 seconds after applying the developing solution is correct. This waiting period allows the test to react and provide accurate results for the presence of occult blood.
