A nurse is caring for a client in a clinic who has foul-smelling urine, a low-grade fever of 37.7°C (100°F), and pain with urination. Which of the following should the nurse expect the health care provider to order? (Select all that apply.)

Choice A reason: Furosemide does not require a diet low in potassium; in fact, patients may need to increase their potassium intake due to its diuretic effect.

Choice B reason: Patients on furosemide should not limit fluid intake unless specifically instructed by their healthcare provider, as the medication is a diuretic.

Choice C reason: Furosemide is used to treat high blood pressure, so it would not cause an increase in blood pressure.

Choice D reason: Limiting sun exposure and wearing sunscreen is important as furosemide can make the skin more sensitive to sunlight.

Choice A reason: Maintaining the client in a left lateral position is not specifically required for peritoneal dialysis. Positioning may vary based on the individual's comfort and specific medical needs.

Choice B reason: While monitoring vital signs is important during any medical procedure, it is not an intervention that directly ensures proper dialysate exchange in peritoneal dialysis.

Choice C reason: Warming the dialysate solution prior to instillation is a standard practice in peritoneal dialysis. It helps to promote patient comfort and more efficient exchange of wastes and fluids.

Choice D reason: Placing the drainage bag above the level of the client's abdomen would impede gravity drainage, which is necessary for proper dialysate exchange. The drainage bag should be placed below the level of the client's abdomen.
