Question 1 of 5
A nurse is reviewing the laboratory reports for a client who has chronic kidney disease. Which of the following laboratory reports should the nurse expect to find?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: BUN 25 mg/dL, serum creatinine 2.3 mg/dl. In chronic kidney disease, the BUN (Blood Urea Nitrogen) and serum creatinine levels tend to be elevated due to impaired kidney function. BUN reflects the amount of urea nitrogen in the blood, while serum creatinine indicates kidney filtration rate. A higher BUN and creatinine level in this scenario suggests decreased kidney function.
Choice D is the only option with elevated levels of both BUN and creatinine, indicating impaired kidney function.
Choices A, B, and C have normal or slightly elevated values, which would not be expected in chronic kidney disease.
