Explanation

Choice A reason: Driving restrictions are not typically necessary for clients on hemodialysis unless there are other underlying conditions affecting their ability to drive safely.

Choice B reason: Clients on hemodialysis need to restrict foods high in potassium, sodium, and phosphorus to manage their electrolyte levels and prevent complications.

Choice C reason: Airplane travel is not generally restricted for hemodialysis clients, but they may need to arrange for dialysis at their destination.

Choice D reason: Time constraints are a significant factor as hemodialysis requires several hours per session, multiple times a week.

Choice E reason: Fluid intake often needs to be restricted in clients on hemodialysis to prevent fluid overload, as the kidneys are not able to remove excess fluid effectively.
