Contract muscles around rectum
Correct answer
Week 5 - Renal and Urological Problems
Lie on back and lift legs together
Rationale
To teach pelvic floor, or Kegel, exercises, the nurse should instruct the
patient (without contracting the legs, buttocks, or abdomen) to contract
the muscles around the rectum (pelvic floor muscles) as if stopping a
stool, which should result in a pelvic lifting sensation. Squeezing the
thighs together, tightening buttocks together, and lying on the back
and lifting legs do not strengthen the pelvic floor muscles.

Correct answer
Week 5 -Pheochromocytoma
Renal and Urological Problems
Rationale
Glomerulonephritis may occur after a beta-hemolytic streptococcal
infection. The disease process involves an unusual antigen-antibody
reaction in the glomeruli of the kidneys, which causes the condition.
Pneumonia, lung fibrosis, and pheochromocytoma are not caused by a
beta-hemolytic streptococcal infection.
