Nursing care plans then Renal and Genitourinary
Renal and Genitourinary Care Plans
Access protection, potassium, and fluid balance carried across every shift.
12 plans in this system
Potassium, fluid balance, and access protection recur in every plan in this system. The tested judgment is usually which value to act on first and which medication or procedure to hold.
Chronic Kidney Disease
Questions here reward the nurse who protects the access and recognizes hyperkalemia early.
CP-023Members onlyAcute Kidney Injury
Acute kidney injury items test cause and priority, not pathophysiology.
CP-024Members onlyUrinary Tract Infection and Pyelonephritis
These items test whether you can tell a bladder infection from a kidney infection.
CP-088Members onlyHemodialysis and Vascular Access
The access arm item appears constantly, and it is often disguised as a routine task such as taking vital signs or drawing labs.
CP-089Members onlyPeritoneal Dialysis
Cloudy outflow is the single most reliable item in this plan, and the answer is report and culture rather than continue and observe.
CP-090Members onlyNephrolithiasis
Straining urine is the highest yield answer in this plan and it beats options that sound more active.
CP-091Members onlyBenign Prostatic Hyperplasia and Transurethral Resection
The output calculation appears constantly and the answer requires subtracting the irrigant.
CP-092Members onlyBladder Cancer and Urinary Diversion
The mucus item is the most reliable one in this plan and the answer is increase fluid intake, not obtain a urine culture.
CP-093Members onlyNephrotic Syndrome and Glomerulonephritis
Items ask you to choose the best indicator of fluid status, and daily weight beats intake and output, edema rating, and blood pressure.
CP-094Members onlyUrinary Retention and Catheter Care
When a stem describes possible retention, the correct first action is almost always to scan the bladder.
CP-095Members onlyUrinary Incontinence
Items give the leakage pattern in the stem and expect you to match the intervention, so read for what triggers the leak before reading the options.
CP-096Members onlyKidney Transplant Recipient
The rejection item gives falling urine output with a weight gain and graft tenderness, and the answer is notify the provider, not increase fluids or reassure.
