A client with acute renal failure develops uremia. What clinical manifestations are associated with uremia in this client?

A. Incorrect. Unlike computed tomography (CT) scans, MRI scans do not typically require the ingestion of a contrast solution.

B. Incorrect. The MRI scan does not directly measure the glomerular filtration rate (GFR), which is typically assessed through blood tests.

C. Incorrect. A renal biopsy involves inserting a needle through the back to obtain a tissue sample from the kidneys, not an MRI scan.

D. Correct. Before an MRI scan, clients need to remove all metal objects and devices, including jewelry, piercings, hearing aids, and certain medical implants. Metal can interfere with the MRI's magnetic field and cause safety concerns during the procedure.

A. Incorrect. Increased urine output and polyuria are not associated with uremia. In fact, acute renal failure often leads to decreased urine output (oliguria or anuriA. .

B. Incorrect. Hypertension and bradycardia are not typical manifestations of uremia.

C. Correct. Uremia is a condition characterized by the buildup of waste products and toxins in the blood due to impaired kidney function. Clinical manifestations of uremia include confusion (encephalopathy), nausea and vomiting, and pericarditis (inflammation of the pericardium, the sac surrounding the heart).

D. Incorrect. Decreased respiratory rate and shallow breathing are not directly associated with uremia.
