Question 1 of 5
The client diagnosed with ARF has a serum potassium level of 6.8 mEq/L. Which collaborative treatment should the nurse anticipate for the client?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: A potassium level of 6.8 mEq/L indicates severe hyperkalemia, which can cause cardiac arrhythmias. Dialysis is the most effective treatment to rapidly lower potassium in ARF. Phosphate binders, blood transfusions, or assessing cramps do not address hyperkalemia directly.
