a. is used to having things done his way.
b. has an obsessive-compulsive disorder.
c. has no other responsibilities to keep him occupied.

there may be an electrolyte deficiency of
a. magnesium.

b. “Your doctor will inject a dye into a vein in your arm that is carried to the urinary
system. Then a lighted tube in your bladder is used to see when the dye appears.”
c. “Your doctor will insert a lighted tube into the bladder and inject a dye into your
kidneys through little catheters inserted into the ureters.”
d. “Your doctor will place a catheter into an artery in your groin and inject a dye that

ANS: B
Risk factors include smoking; familial incidence; and preexisting renal disorders such as
adult polycystic kidney disease and renal cystic disease secondary to renal failure.

TOP: Renal cancer KEY: Nursing Process Step: Assessment
19. As the nurse and the dietitian review a patient’s diet plan with her, she becomes very
angry, shouting that with her diabetes and now the kidney failure, there is just nothing
she can eat. She says she might as well eat what she wants, because these diseases will
kill her anyway. Based on the patient’s response, which nursing diagnosis does the nurse
identify?
a. Noncompliance, risk for, related to feelings of anger
b. Risk for ineffective health maintenance, related to complexity of therapeutic
regimen
c. Anticipatory grieving, related to actual and perceived losses

nitrogen (BUN) level of 93 mg/dL. An excessive elevation of BUN could result in
a. dehydration.

c. Assist the patient to the bathroom every 2 hours.
d. Apply absorbent incontinence pads.
ANS: D
Use of protective undergarments may help to keep the patient and the patient’s clothing
dry. Confused patients are high risk for falls. Restricting fluids will only decrease
incontinence during the night and will exacerbate the dehydration and electrolyte

29. Which complementary and alternative therapies are used to prevent and/or treat urinary
tract infections (UTIs)?
a. Grape juice
b. Caffeine
c. Tea

heart failure and pulmonary edema, record daily morning weights for the patient
receiving diuretics. Diet should be low in sodium with no added salt in cooking.

Urinary frequency, urgency, nocturia, retention, and incontinence are common with
aging. These occur because of weakened musculature in the bladder and urethra,
diminished neurologic sensation combined with decreased bladder capacity, and the
effects of medications such as diuretics. Older women are at risk for stress incontinence
because of hormonal changes and weakened pelvic musculature. Inadequate fluid intake
(less than 1,000 to 2,000 mL per 24 hours) can lead to urinary stasis.
