Answer to Question 1

Ans: A
Helping clients assume their usual voiding positions may be all that is necessary to resolve an inability to void. If male clients cannot void lying down, encourage them to void while standing at the bedside unless this is contraindicated.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: C
Urine for a routine urinalysis does not have to be sterile. Ask the client to void into a clean receptacle and avoid contamination with stool. Note on the request form if a woman is having her menstrual period. Instruct clients not to put toilet paper into the urine because this makes analysis more difficult.
