Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a school-age child who has acute glomerulonephritis with peripheral edema and is producing 35mL of urine per hour. The nurse should place the client on which of the following diets?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Low-sodium, fluid-restricted. In acute glomerulonephritis, there is decreased kidney function leading to fluid retention and reduced urine output. A low-sodium diet helps reduce fluid retention and manage hypertension associated with glomerulonephritis. Fluid restriction helps prevent fluid overload and further edema.
Choices A, B, and C do not specifically address the need to reduce sodium and fluid intake, which are crucial in managing glomerulonephritis. It is important to focus on sodium and fluid restrictions to prevent worsening of symptoms and complications in this client population.
