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 D rationale

Intravenous (IV) administration has the fastest rate of absorption because the medication is delivered directly into the bloodstream, bypassing the absorption barriers of the digestive system or muscle tissue. This ensures rapid onset of action.

Choice A rationale

Enteral administration involves the gastrointestinal tract, including oral and feeding tube methods. Absorption is slower as the medication passes through the digestive system before entering the bloodstream.

Choice B rationale

Intramuscular (IM) administration involves injecting the medication into muscle tissue, where it is absorbed into the bloodstream. Absorption is quicker than enteral routes but slower compared to IV administration.

Choice C rationale

Topical administration involves applying medication to the skin or mucous membranes. Absorption is generally slower and is intended for local or systemic effects, depending on the medication.
