Answer to Question 1

Ans: B
Dysuria means painful voiding. Pain is often associated with UTIs and is felt as a burning sensation during urination. Polyuria is the formation and excretion of excessive amounts of urine in the absence of a concurrent increase in fluid intake. Voiding during normal sleeping hours is called nocturia. Hematuria refers to blood in the urine.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: B
The client's statement about voiding after sexual intercourse to prevent urinary tract infection is accurate. Taking frequent bubble baths, wiping the perineum from back to front, and wearing snug fitting pants increases the risk of urinary tract infection. The client should avoid taking frequent bubble baths, using harsh soaps, and wearing tight-fitting pants because they can irritate the urethra. The client also should always wipe from front to back after urinary or fecal elimination.
