Rationale: It is safer to restrict fluid intake rather than administer sodium to return a patient with hyponatremia to normal sodium levels to prevent fluid overload symptoms. Restoring normal sodium levels in patients with hyponatremia requires caution to prevent rapid correction which can lead to osmotic demyelination syndrome. By restricting fluid intake, the dilutional effect on sodium levels can be reduced, aiding in a safer and more controlled correction of hyponatremia without causing fluid overload. Administering sodium can lead to rapid changes in sodium levels, increasing the risk of complications.

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The client at risk for developing AIDS, which is caused by the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), should be advised to have an ELISA test for antibodies to check for the presence of the virus. ELISA is a standard blood test used for HIV screening because it can detect antibodies produced by the body in response to HIV infection. Early detection through testing is crucial to initiate treatment interventions and prevent further transmission of the virus. It is important for the client to undergo this test to determine their HIV status and receive appropriate medical care and support.
