Question 1 of 5

The nurse has given the client with a nephrostomy tube instructions to follow after hospital discharge to prevent complications. The nurse determines that the client understands the instructions if the client verbalizes the need to drink how many glasses of water per day?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The client with a nephrostomy tube needs to have adequate fluid intake to dilute urinary particles that could cause calculus and provide good mechanical flushing of the kidney and the tube. The nurse encourages the client to take in 2000mL of fluid per day, which is roughly equivalent to 6 to 8 glasses of water. One to three glasses of water is an inadequate amount. Amounts over 10 glasses of water could distend the renal pelvis.
