B. Calculate input and output

C. Perform cath care and tell the nurse asap.

    I'd go with A as well. Even though it's only been two hours, the patient still should have voided more than "a little".

    It used to be 30ml/hr minimum, now it's moving more towards 50 ml/hr...one professor even says it must be 1 ml/kg body weight/hr. I'm in my 4th semester of nursing school now and on our exams, it's minimum of 50 ml/hr.

    Yes - all the docs at my work use 1 ml/kg (body weight)/hr now.
