A client who is recovering from deep partial-thickness burns develops chills, fever, flank pain, and malaise. The primary healthcare provider makes a tentative diagnosis of urinary tract infection. Which diagnostic tests should the nurse expect the primary healthcare provider to prescribe to confirm this diagnosis?

Cystoscopy and bilirubin level

Specific gravity and pH of the urine

Urinalysis and urine culture and sensitivity

Creatinine clearance and albumin/globulin (A/G) ratio!
Urinalysis and urine culture and sensitivity
Rationale
The client's manifestations may indicate a urinary tract infection; a culture of the urine will identify the microorganism, and sensitivity will identify the most appropriate antibiotic. A cystoscopy is too invasive as a screening procedure; altered bilirubin results indicate liver or biliary problems, not urinary signs and symptoms. Creatinine clearance reflects renal function; A/G ratio reflects liver function. Although an increased urine specific gravity may indicate red blood cells (RBCs), white blood cells (WBCs), or casts in the urine, which are associated with urinary tract infection, it will not identify the causative organism.
