The nurse is caring for a client who has a continuous bladder irrigation (CBI) infusing. At the end of the shift, the nurse calculates the urine output. The client received a total of 2700 mL of the irrigation and emptied a total of 3375 ml from the urine catheter. What should the nurse record as the client's true urine output?

A. This response shows some awareness but does not indicate a sufficient understanding of the risks. Straight razors can pose a significant risk of cuts and bleeding, especially in a patient who has received t- PA, which can increase the likelihood of bleeding.
B. This response suggests a misunderstanding. Using multiple razor blades does not inherently reduce the risk of bleeding and could increase the chance of cuts or nicks. This response does not indicate an appropriate understanding of safety precautions related to t-PA.
C. This response indicates an understanding of safety precautions. Electric razors are safer for clients who are at risk of bleeding because they do not have sharp blades that can easily cause cuts. This choice minimizes the risk of injury while allowing for personal grooming.
D. While disposable razors may seem convenient, they still carry a risk of cuts and bleeding. This response does not reflect a full understanding of the precautions necessary for a client who has received t-PA, as it does not prioritize safety in the same way that using an electric razor does.

A. Limiting fluids with meals is not a recommended practice for preventing prostatitis. Staying hydrated is generally encouraged to promote urinary health. This option does not address the prevention of prostatitis recurrence.
B. This is a good instruction. Frequent voiding helps reduce the risk of urinary stasis and potential bacterial growth in the urinary tract, which can contribute to prostatitis. Encouraging the client to empty their bladder regularly is beneficial in preventing recurrence.
C. While monitoring PSA levels can be important for assessing prostate health, it is not a direct preventive measure for prostatitis recurrence. PSA tests are primarily used to screen for prostate cancer or monitor prostate conditions rather than prevent prostatitis itself.
D. This recommendation is not appropriate for preventing prostatitis. While caffeine may irritate the bladder and prostate, decaffeinated drinks typically do not have the same effect and can be a good source of hydration. Avoiding decaffeinated drinks does not contribute to prostatitis prevention.
