This is the correct answer. The catheter will remain in place until the client can urinate normally without difficulty, which typically occurs once the swelling and inflammation in the urinary tract subside.
Removing the catheter the day after surgery may not be appropriate, as the client may still have difficulty urinating due to the effects of the surgery. The removal of the catheter is based on the client's ability to urinate comfortably and effectively.Questions
