Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a school-age child who has acute glomerulonephritis with peripheral edema and is producing 35 mL 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 diet. In acute glomerulonephritis, the kidneys are not effectively filtering waste and excess fluid, leading to peripheral edema and decreased urine output. A low-sodium diet helps manage fluid retention by reducing fluid accumulation in the body. Fluid restriction helps prevent fluid overload, which can worsen edema. Options A, C, and B do not directly address the fluid retention concern in acute glomerulonephritis. Option A may not provide enough nutrients for a growing child, and option C may not be appropriate as protein is needed for tissue repair. Option B does not address the need for fluid restriction.
