A nurse is teaching a newly licensed nurse about an ileal conduit.
The nurse should include which of the following information?
A client has control of elimination through an ileal conduit.
A client's ureters are attached to a section of the client's small intestine to form an ileal conduit.
An ileal conduit is a tube that directly connects a client's kidney to an external pouch.
Stool is passed through an ileal conduit located on a client's abdomen.
The Correct Answer is B
Choice A rationale
An ileal conduit does not provide the client with control over elimination. It is a type of urinary diversion, and the client wears an external pouch to collect urine.
Choice B rationale
In an ileal conduit, the client's ureters are attached to a section of the small intestine, which is then brought to the surface of the abdomen to form a stoma. Urine flows through this conduit into an external pouch.
Choice C rationale
An ileal conduit is not a tube that directly connects the kidney to an external pouch. It involves using a section of the small intestine to create a passageway for urine to exit the body.
Choice D rationale
Stool is not passed through an ileal conduit. The ileal conduit is specifically for urinary diversion, while stool passes through the regular gastrointestinal tract.

Correct Answer is C
Explanation
Choice A rationale
Cheese is high in calcium, which can interfere with the absorption of iron by binding to it in the digestive tract, making it less available for absorption.
Choice B rationale
Antacids containing magnesium can interfere with the absorption of iron by increasing the pH of the stomach, reducing the solubility and absorption of iron.
Choice C rationale
Orange juice is high in vitamin C, which can enhance the absorption of iron by reducing it to a form that is more easily absorbed by the body.
Choice D rationale
Milk contains calcium, which can inhibit the absorption of iron. Calcium competes with iron for absorption in the intestines, leading to reduced iron absorption.
