Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a client who has an admitted diagnosis of renal calculi and medical history of hypertension and gout. The client works 6 days of the week outside in temperatures between 32.2° C to 37.8° C (90° F to 100° F). Which of the following should the nurse tell the client to prevent a reoccurrence of renal calculi?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Drink plenty of fluids during the day: Adequate hydration is the most important strategy to prevent the formation of renal calculi, especially in hot climates where fluid loss through sweat increases the risk. High oxalate and purine-rich foods can promote stone formation, and gout medication, while important, is not the primary intervention.
