Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who has benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). The nurse should expect which of the following findings?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Difficulty starting the flow of urine. This is expected in clients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) due to the enlargement of the prostate gland, which can obstruct the flow of urine from the bladder. This occurs as the urethra is compressed by the enlarged prostate, leading to difficulty initiating urination. Painful urination (choice
A) is not typically associated with BPH but could be a sign of a urinary tract infection. Urge incontinence (choice
B) is more commonly seen in conditions like overactive bladder. A critically elevated PSA level (choice
C) may indicate prostate cancer, not BPH.
Therefore, the correct finding to expect in a client with BPH is difficulty starting the flow of urine.
