A nurse instructs a female client about collecting a midstream urine sample. Which statement made by the client is appropriate from the teaching provided by the nurse?

"I'll use each cleansing wipe twice."

"I'll clean the inside of the container with a wipe."

"I'll urinate a little then stop."

"I'll use the cleansing wipe from front to back."

Answer and Explanation

The Correct Answer is D

A. Using each cleansing wipe twice is not appropriate, as this may cause cross-contamination; each wipe should be used once.

B. Cleaning the inside of the container is unnecessary and may introduce contaminants; only the outside should be kept clean.

C. The correct method involves urinating a little, stopping to allow for midstream collection, and then continuing to urinate; saying "then stop" may confuse the procedure.

D. Using the cleansing wipe from front to back is the correct technique for women to prevent urinary tract infections (UTIs) and ensure proper hygiene during sample collection.
