Answer Choices:

Rationale:

🏵️ Routine hygiene and catheter stabilization significantly reduce bacterial entry and urethral trauma during catheter use.

🏵️ Using dedicated measuring containers prevents cross-contamination and infection transmission between different clients.

🏵️ Drainage bags should be emptied before becoming full to prevent urine backflow into the bladder.

🏵️ Placing the bag on the bed interrupts gravity drainage and increases the risk of contamination.

🏵️ Proper catheter care is essential to prevent catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTI) and related complications.
