Question 1 of 5
The nurse is preparing a plan of care for the client diagnosed with acute glomerulonephritis. Which statement is an appropriate long-term goal?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Maintaining normal renal function is the ultimate long-term goal for acute glomerulonephritis, as it indicates resolution of renal damage. Normal BP and no proteinuria are intermediate goals, and clear lung sounds are unrelated.
Question 2 of 5
When the client with an ileal conduit expresses concern about odor, which recommendation by the nurse is most effective?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Using a deodorizing pouch spray effectively controls odor, addressing the client's concern.
Question 3 of 5
The client diagnosed with CKD has a new arteriovenous fistula in the left forearm. Which intervention should the nurse implement?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale:
To protect the new AV fistula, the client should avoid stress on the left arm. Carrying heavy objects with the right arm prevents fistula damage. Blood tests should avoid the fistula arm, lying on it risks compression, and hand exercises are encouraged to promote fistula maturation.
Question 4 of 5
The client diagnosed with renal calculi is admitted to the medical unit. Which intervention should the nurse implement first?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Severe pain is a hallmark of renal calculi, and complications like obstruction or infection must be ruled out first. Pain assessment guides treatment. Monitoring output, increasing fluids, and using a gait belt are secondary.
Question 5 of 5
