Question: 1 / 400

A nurse is caring for a client who had a transurethral resection of the prostate and is receiving continuous bladder irrigation by gravity. Which tasks can the nurse delegate to unlicensed assistive personnel?

Calculating the difference between irrigant intake and total drainage output

Option A is correct because unlicensed assistive personnel (UAP) can be delegated tasks that involve measuring and calculating. Options B and C require knowledge of sterile technique and assessment skills, which are outside the scope of practice for UAP. Option D involves making a clinical decision and should be done by a licensed nurse. Option E also requires clinical judgement and should be done by a licensed nurse.
