A nurse is caring for a client who has experienced a stroke, decreased weight, and a decreased prealbumin. Which of the following interdisciplinary team members should the nurse anticipate collaborating with about the client's condition?

A. "Restrict your partner's oral fluid intake to 450 mL/day.": Fluid restriction in ESKD should be individualized based on the client’s kidney function and retention. A strict 450 mL/day limit is not universally applicable.

B. "Limit your partner's potassium intake to 60 mEq/L per day.": Potassium intake is typically restricted in ESKD due to the kidneys' reduced ability to excrete it. The appropriate restriction depends on potassium levels, but generally, it’s advised to limit intake to prevent hyperkalemia and related complications.

C. "Help your partner consume foods containing phosphorus.": Phosphorus intake should be restricted in ESKD, as high phosphorus levels can cause complications like bone disease. Consuming phosphorus-rich foods should be avoided to prevent calcium-phosphorus imbalances and calcification.

D. "Encourage foods high in protein for your partner.": Excess protein intake in ESKD can exacerbate kidney function decline and increase waste buildup. Protein intake should be monitored and reduced to minimize the kidneys’ workload and prevent further damage.

A. Perform the reconciliation only at admission and discharge: Medication reconciliation should be performed at all stages of care. It should also be done during transfers between units and at any point where medication changes occur to ensure accuracy and prevent errors.

B. Compare only the prescribed home medications to the new prescriptions: Medication reconciliation requires comparing home medications and any newly prescribed medications. This includes reviewing all medications to identify discrepancies and ensure safety.

C. Delete new prescriptions that may interact with home medications: The nurse should not delete prescriptions. Instead, they should identify potential drug interactions, assess the risks, and notify the healthcare provider to discuss alternatives or adjustments as needed.

D. Consider the risk for medication interactions: The nurse should evaluate the potential for drug interactions by comparing home medications with new prescriptions. This helps to ensure the safety and effectiveness of the client's medication regimen.
