A. Flush all urine down the toilet.
B. Restrict the client’s fluid intake.
C. Place the client in a semiprivate room.
D. Monitor the client for signs and symptoms of cystitis.
参考答案:D
解析:Cystitis is the most common adverse reaction associated with radiation therapy; symptoms include dysuria, frequency, urgency, and nocturia. Clients with radiation implants require a private room. Urine of clients with radiation implants for bladder cancer should be sent to the radioisotopes laboratory for monitoring. It’s recommended that fluid intake be increased.
