Question 5 of 5
A 28-year-old woman is hospitalized (hospital day 3) on the maternity floor after cesarean section delivery of her first child. The child was born at term by C-section because of failure of labor to progress. The patient has been unable to void normally since the procedure. Which of the following is the most appropriate treatment for this patient?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Bethanechol, a muscarinic agonist, stimulates bladder contraction to treat postoperative urinary retention, common after cesarean sections due to anesthesia or trauma. Carbachol is less selective and used for glaucoma. Physostigmine treats anticholinergic overdose, not primary retention. Pilocarpine is for glaucoma and xerostomia.
