Case Study
Mrs. Brady is a 58 year old woman who is admitted to your unit post op from an ORIF (open reduction internal fixation) of the left hip. She is now three days post-op and has started physiotherapy. Her pain has been manageable since her surgery and she is keen to go home. Her Foley catheter was removed yesterday evening.
You arrive for your day shift and find Mrs. Brady in the bathroom. She tells you that she feels as though she needs to void, but that she has tried multiple times overnight and nothing has happened. She reports 6/10 pain to the pelvic region and appears to be in discomfort as she is unable to stay still and is diaphoretic.
