Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who has hypernatremia and requires IV fluid therapy due to his NPO status. Which of the following solutions should the nurse prepare to infuse for this client?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 0.45% sodium chloride. In hypernatremia, the client has high sodium levels, so a hypotonic solution like 0.45% sodium chloride is needed to dilute the excess sodium in the body. This solution helps to lower the serum sodium levels slowly and safely. Lactated Ringer's (
A) is an isotonic solution and may worsen hypernatremia. Dextrose 5% in 0.9% sodium chloride (
C) and Dextrose 10% in water (
D) are hypertonic solutions and can further increase sodium levels. It's crucial to choose the right IV fluid based on the client's condition to prevent complications.
