Question 1 of 5

A client with chronic kidney disease (CKD) is receiving calcium acetate 667 mg PO. A decrease in which blood value indicates to the nurse that the medication is having the desired effect?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Phosphate. Calcium acetate is a phosphate binder commonly used in CKD to reduce phosphate levels. When phosphate levels decrease, it indicates that the medication is effectively binding to phosphate in the gastrointestinal tract, preventing its absorption. This helps in managing hyperphosphatemia, a common complication in CKD. Potassium (choice
A) and calcium (choice
B) levels are not directly affected by calcium acetate. pH (choice
