Answer to Question 1

A
Use a sterile plastic urine collecting bag that adheres to the perineum of a nontoilet-trained child. Special considerations for boys: Place the penis and scrotum inside the bag. Diapers may be contaminated. Seating on a toilet generally is not realistic for an infant. Catheterization should be used as a last resort only.

Answer to Question 2

bladder scanner
The bladder scanner is noninvasive, so there is no risk for nosocomial UTI and possible trauma associated with urinary catheterization. It provides accurate determination of a patient's bladder volume by first creating an ultrasound image of the patient's bladder and then calculating the urine volume in the bladder.
