Answer to Question 1

A
Apply a pressure dressing to control bleeding, but when wound drainage is present, use a highly absorbent dressing. Use an alginate, foam, or hydrocolloid dressing in a noninfected wound that is draining a moderate to large amount of exudate.

Answer to Question 2

Residual urine
Residual urine, also referred to as postvoid residual (PVR), is the volume of urine in the bladder after a normal voiding.
