Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a patient with kidney dysfunction. The nurse understands that kidney dysfunction can lead to an increase in the duration and intensity of a medication's response. Which lab tests should the nurse monitor? Select all that apply

Correct Answer: A,B

Rationale: The correct lab tests to monitor in a patient with kidney dysfunction are Blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and Creatinine. BUN and Creatinine levels are important indicators of kidney function. In kidney dysfunction, the clearance of medications is impaired, leading to a prolonged duration and increased intensity of drug response. Monitoring BUN and Creatinine levels helps assess the kidney's ability to filter waste and metabolize medications. Lipid panel and blood glucose levels are not directly related to kidney dysfunction in terms of medication response.
Therefore, A and B are the correct choices as they directly reflect kidney function in this context.
