    A nurse is reinforcing teaching with the parents of a child who has a urinary tract infection (UTI). Which of the following should the nurse include? Select all that apply.

    Explanation & Rationale

    A. Report recurrence of urinary frequency: Urinary frequency can indicate unresolved or recurrent UTI. B. Avoid bubble bath: Bubble baths can irritate the urethra and increase the risk of UTIs. C. Empty bladder completely with each void: Incomplete bladder emptying can promote bacterial growth. D. Wipe perineal area back to front: The correct method is wiping front to back to prevent bacterial contamination from the anal area. E. Wear nylon underpants: Cotton underpants are recommended to allow better airflow and reduce moisture, which promotes bacterial growth.
