Following spinal anesthesia for delivery of her baby, a woman reports an inability to void urine. As the nurse palpates the woman's bladder the woman says, It's been five hours since I had my spinal and I still can't empty my bladder.
 
  Do I have nerve damage? How should the nurse respond?
  1. Spinal anesthesia can sometimes cause nerve damage.
  2. It may be several hours before you're able to control your urination.
  3. You should be able to control your bladder by now. I'll ask the anesthesia provider to visit with you.
  4. You are probably dehydrated. Please increase your water intake.
