Question 1 of 5
The nurse is caring for a client diagnosed with rule-out nephrotic syndrome. Which intervention should be included in the plan of care?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Nephrotic syndrome is characterized by massive proteinuria, hypoalbuminemia, and edema, often dependent (e.g., in the sacrum in bedridden clients). Assessing for dependent edema is a key intervention to monitor disease progression or response to treatment. Bright-red bleeding is not typical, a 500-mg protein diet is incorrect, and high serum albumin is not expected.
