Answer to Question 1

D
When the urinary catheter enters the bladder, urine drains from the catheter.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback:
With biofeedback, a client learns to control or alter a physiologic phenomenon (eg, pain, blood pressure, headache, heart rate and rhythm, seizures) as an adjunct to traditional pain management. Biofeedback does not involve massage or specific coping techniques.
