Questions and Answers
A nurse is reinforcing discharge teaching with a client who has undergone a transurethral

resection of the prostate (TURP). Which of the following statements should the nurse include in

the teaching?


 :-- "Increase fluid intake if urine becomes blood tinged"




Rationale: The nurse should reinforce that strenous activity, straining to have a bowel

movement, and coughing may cause the urine to become blood tinged. If this should occur, the

client should be instructed to stop the activity, rest, and increase fluid intake. If urine becomes

increasingly blood tinged or does not clear, or the client has difficulty voiding, he should be

instructed to notify the provider.




A nurse is caring for a client who is suspected to have active laryngeal tuberculosis (TB). Which

of the following actions should the nurse plan to take to safely care for this client?


 :-- Place the client in a private room with a special ventilation system




Rationale: Clients suspected to have active laryngeal tuberculosis are placed in private rooms

with negative-pressure airflow via HEPA filtration systems. Negative pressure pulls air away

from the hallway and exhausts it out of the room to areas away from the intake vents.
