Answer to Question 1

1, 3, 5, 6
The four types of incontinence are stress, urge, overflow, and functional. Radical and temporary are not types of bladder incontinence.

Answer to Question 2

2
Neurogenic shock is common following a spinal cord injury at or about T6. The client with a spinal cord injury at T1 is at risk for developing neurogenic shock. The other assessment findings do not place the client at risk for developing this type of shock.
