A nurse is teaching a newly licensed nurse about obtaining a fecal occult blood test from a client.
Which of the following information should the nurse include?

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

Instilling ophthalmic medication directly on the cornea can cause irritation and discomfort. Medications should be administered in the conjunctival sac.

Choice B rationale

Asking the client to tightly squeeze their eyes shut after instillation can expel the medication, reducing its effectiveness. Gentle closing of the eyes is recommended.

Choice C rationale

Cleaning the eye from the outer canthus to the inner canthus is not the proper method. The correct method is to clean from the inner canthus to the outer canthus to avoid contaminating the inner eye.

Choice D rationale

Applying pressure to the nasolacrimal duct after instillation helps prevent the medication from draining into the nasolacrimal system, ensuring better absorption in the eye. .
