A nurse is collecting data from a client who is 1 day postoperative following a transurethral resection of the prostate. Which of the following findings should the nurse report to the provider?

After a transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP), it is expected for the client to have some blood in the urine. Initially, the urine may be bright red or pink due to the surgical procedure's trauma to the prostate and surrounding tissues. However, as time passes, the urine should gradually become lighter in color. If the client's urine remains dark red, it may indicate active bleeding or a significant amount of blood in the urine, which could be a cause for concern.
