Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who has cirrhosis of the liver and is receiving spironolactone. Which of the following findings indicates that the client is responding to the treatment?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Decreased ascites. Spironolactone is a potassium-sparing diuretic commonly used in liver cirrhosis to reduce fluid retention and ascites. A decrease in ascites indicates that the medication is effectively reducing fluid accumulation in the abdomen, a key goal in managing cirrhosis. Increased energy (choice
A) and increased appetite (choice
C) are not directly related to the medication's action on fluid retention. Decreased jaundice (choice
D) may indicate improved liver function but is not a specific response to spironolactone in treating ascites.
