Answer to Question 1

B

Feedback
A The chart is not the primary source of data for evaluation.
B The primary source of data for evaluation purposes is the client.
C The end-of-shift report is not the primary source of data for evaluation.
D The nurse may use input from other caregivers in an interprofessional team meeting, but this is not the primary source of data for evaluation.

Answer to Question 2

A

Feedback
A The urinary drainage bag should be emptied at least every eight hours. If large outputs are noted, more frequent emptying will be required.
B The perineum should be cleansed, and then down the catheter for a length of approximately 10 cm.
C Use sterile technique only to collect specimens from a closed-drainage system.
D Avoid raising the drainage bag above the level of the bladder. If it becomes necessary to raise the bag during transfer of the patient to a bed or stretcher, clamp the tubing or empty the tubing contents to the drainage bag first. The drainage bag can be attached to the wheelchair below the level of the patient's bladder for transport. It should not be placed on the patient's lap.
