Answer to Question 1

ANS: 3
A bladder retraining program includes initiating a toileting schedule on awakening, at least every 2 hours during the day and evening, before getting into bed, and every 4 hours at night. Negative reinforcement should not be used when the client is incontinent. However, positive reinforcement should be provided when continence is maintained. The client should be offered protective un-dergarments to contain urine and reduce the client's embarrassment (not diapers). Tea, coffee, other caffeine drinks, and alcohol should be minimized.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: 3
Before inserting the indwelling catheter, the balloon should be tested by injecting the fluid from the prefilled syringe into the balloon port. The dominant hand is kept sterile throughout the pro-cedure. The nondominant hand is not kept sterile because it touches the client. If the catheter is misplaced, it should be left in the vagina as a landmark indicating where not to insert, and anoth-er sterile catheter should be inserted into the urethra. The catheter should be advanced 2 to 3 inches in the female client.
