Quiz zum Vortrag
A postoperative patient has both opioid-induced constipation and acute urinary retention. Why does urinary retention require more immediate intervention than constipation?
- Untreated retention causes acute kidney injury and bladder damage within hours
- Constipation resolves spontaneously without treatment in postoperative patients
- Urinary retention is more painful and therefore always takes priority over bowel issues
- Constipation cannot be treated until urinary retention is resolved first
- Opioid-induced constipation has a 48-hour treatment window, making it less serious overall

Which medication class relaxes the prostate and bladder neck to treat BPH-related urinary retention?
- Alpha blockers
- Antimuscarinics

Which features indicate urinary retention rather than overactive bladder? (Select all that apply.)
- Bladder cannot empty despite effort
- Straining with only dribbling urine output
- Benign prostatic hyperplasia as an underlying cause
- Treated with alpha blockers or catheterization
