A nurse is collecting data on a client who has chronic kidney disease. Which of the following findings is a manifestation of hyperkalemia?

Choice A reason: Doing wheelchair exercises sitting in the chair is a correct statement, as it helps to prevent pressure ulcers, improve circulation, and maintain muscle tone.

Choice B reason: Using a suppository every night to have a bowel movement is an incorrect statement, as it indicates a dependence on laxatives and a lack of bowel training. The adolescent should be taught to establish a regular bowel routine, use natural methods such as abdominal massage and digital stimulation, and avoid overuse of laxatives.

Choice C reason: Needing to catheterize oneself twice a day is a correct statement, as it helps to prevent urinary tract infections, bladder distension, and kidney damage.

Choice D reason: Carrying a water bottle with me because I drink a lot of water is a correct statement, as it helps to prevent dehydration, constipation, and urinary tract infections.

Choice A reason: Confirming the client's identity by checking their wristband is the first step to ensure that the right client receives the right treatment.

Choice B reason: Providing for the client's privacy by closing the curtains is the second step to respect the client's dignity and comfort.

Choice C reason: Assisting the client into the Sims' position is the third step to facilitate the insertion of the enema tubing and the flow of the solution. The Sims' position is a side-lying position with the upper leg flexed and the lower leg straight.

Choice D reason: Inserting the tip of the enema tubing into the client's rectum is the fourth and final step to administer the enema. The nurse should lubricate the tip of the tubing, gently insert it about 3 to 4 inches into the rectum, and release the clamp to allow the solution to flow. The nurse should monitor the client for any signs of discomfort or cramping and adjust the flow rate accordingly.
