Ans:
C

Feedback:

Indwelling catheters carry a risk of infections and kidney stones. Catheterization does not influence the activity of the neural pathways, and intermittent catheterization can be performed using clean technique. Indwelling urethral catheters carry a high risk of urinary tract infections.
