Idk it was shift change

Pt condition acute kidney failure..septic..1500cc with minimal in bladder via scan..asked other RN who said no urine is possible

I reported it to preceptor and doc..no one seemed concerned but it worried me..was never told to remove it...should I expect to be disciplined... Nervous nellie over here

I'm a new nurse and of course my first day off orientation I place a Foley without incidence with no urine return..I checked with bladder scan approx 100 cc in bladder..pt was elderly and agitated..dementia...septic..kept pulling at the Foley..I checked Foley placement again after noting blood coming from tube..very minimal blood however flushed fine...told my preceptor was who working to check it as well and doc saw the blood in the tube...no one seemed concerned as it was shift change I passed info on...should I be worried this is going to come back on me...do u all think the Foley could have been pulled out by pt ...ummm..should I have removed it right away

Yes the pvt works..the quick results were in exactly 48 hrs after completing the test..I paid for the quick results Friday after 3pm and yes I passed Thanks to all for happy thoughts

Thanks...how do u know whats an above level question...? I guess seeing that posting is a good thing...what a day

I just took the NCLEX.. had 265 questions.. not sure what to think about.. i left in tears.. i heard the results are based on the last question... and well... not even sure what to think about the last question.. it was a " you know the mom understands the teaching when she says..." i tried the PVT re-registration log in from reading the previous postings here, and it clearly says in RED with a ! " our records indicate you already registered for this test..." when i put in my cc and tried to submit payment... but in the Quick Results section it says "nothing is posted yet" and nothing is posted to the BON what to think? any advise out there?
