Answer to Question 1

qd
The abbreviation for every day (qd) is no longer used. If a treatment or medication is needed daily, the nurse should write out the word daily or every day on the written order or care plan. The abbreviation qd (every day) can be misinterpreted to mean O.D. (right eye).

Answer to Question 2

C
Use of an adhesive strip not designed for sheath application may be inflexible and may impede circulation to the penis. Clip hair at the base of the penis. Hair adheres to the condom and is pulled during condom removal or may get caught in rubber as the condom catheter is applied. Apply skin preparation to the penis and allow it to dry. Leave 1 to 2 inches of space between the tip of the glans penis and the end of the condom.
