A nurse is caring for a client who is 2 hr postoperative following a transurethral resection of the prostate
(TURP) gland. Which of the following assessments should the nurse view to be an indication of a

TURP. Should this occur, the nurse should inform the provider and anticipate an order for increased CBI
rate or manual irrigation of the catheter.

When providing client care, the nurse should first use the least restrictive intervention; therefore, the

occlude the catheter lumen.
