A nurse is caring for a client in a clinic who has foul-smelling urine, a low-grade fever of 37.7°C (100°F), and pain with urination. Which of the following should the nurse expect the health care provider to order? (Select all that apply.)

Choice A reason: General anesthesia can impair the autonomic nervous system, which controls bladder function, leading to urinary retention. This risk is particularly high shortly after surgery.

Choice B reason: While liver failure can lead to multiple organ dysfunction, it is not directly associated with urinary retention unless there are concurrent issues affecting the urinary system.

Choice C reason: A diet high in calcium oxalate can contribute to kidney stones, which could potentially cause urinary obstruction, but it is not a direct cause of urinary retention.

Choice D reason: Antibiotics for a skin infection would not typically lead to urinary retention unless there were an allergic reaction or other rare side effects that affect the urinary system.

Choice A reason: Measuring blood pressure di?erences is not a method to assess the patency of an AV graft.

Choice B reason: Checking pulses is important but does not confirm the patency of the AV graft.

Choice C reason: Using a Doppler stethoscope at the antecubital fossa is not the standard method for assessing AV graft patency.

Choice D reason: Auscultating for a bruit at the site of the AV graft is a common and non-invasive way to assess for patency.
