Answer to Question 1

C
During the collection of a clean-catch urine specimen, the client should be instructed to cleanse the meatus first, initiate voiding, and then place the sterile collection container in the urine stream.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
The client has undergone a cordotomy, which is the surgical interruption of pain pathways in the spinal cord to control pain. A tubectomy, in general terms, means the cutting of the fallopian tubes. A rhizotomy is the surgical sectioning of a nerve root close to the spinal cord. It prevents sensory impulses from entering the spinal cord and traveling to the brain. An osteotomy is a surgical operation whereby a bone is cut to shorten, lengthen, or change its alignment.
