Which statement best explains why the insertion of a urinary catheter would be an ineffective treatment for renal suppression?
A) Renal suppression occurs when effective filtration pressure falls to zero and the kidneys shut down, so a urinary catheter would not help this situation.
B) Renal suppression occurs when effective filtration pressure is elevated and urine production is increased, thus allowing free-flowing urine. A urinary catheter isn't needed in this situation.
C) Renal suppression occurs when there is a disruption of nervous input to the bladder, resulting in loss of control of voiding. A urinary catheter would not be a treatment for the condition.
D) Renal suppression is caused by a urinary tract infection, and a urinary catheter would not be effective in treating this condition.
