Question 1 of 5

A nurse is assessing a client who is taking an osmotic laxative. Which of the following findings should the nurse identify as an indication of fluid volume deficit?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Oliguria. Osmotic laxatives work by drawing water into the bowel to soften stool. If a client taking osmotic laxatives experiences oliguria (decreased urine output), it can indicate fluid volume deficit, as the body may be conserving water due to dehydration from excessive fluid loss through laxative use. Nausea (choice
A) can be a side effect of laxatives but does not directly indicate fluid volume deficit. Weight gain (choice
C) is unlikely in fluid volume deficit. Headaches (choice
D) can be a symptom of dehydration but are not specific to fluid volume deficit.
