A patient who had surgery 8 hours ago has not voided. The nurse notifies the physician for an order to insert an indwelling urinary catheter.
 
  Which of the following statements should the nurse use to describe the procedure to the patient? I need to:
  1) put a Foley in you because you haven't voided since your surgical procedure.
  2) insert a tube into your bladder to drain the urine because you haven't urinated since surgery.
  3) catheterize you because you haven't urinated since having your surgery.
  4) place a catheter in your bladder because you haven't voided since surgery.
