The nursing intervention that should be a priority when an older adult client gets diagnosed with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and has fluid volume excess is: assessing the client's lung sounds.

ESRD is a chronic kidney disease resulting in kidney failure. This is a gradual loss of the functioning of kidney that cannot be restored. The only solution to this disease is long-term dialysis on a regular basis or kidney transplant.

Lung sounds are of different types depending upon the condition of a person lungs. Listening to this sound, also called auscultation is necessary to assess the right medical condition. The sounds related to fluid overload in lungs are grunting, gurgling, or wheezing.

Oxana [17]
<h2>Cholinergic and Adrenergic neurons</h2>

Explanation:

The autonomic nervous system (ANS) is a dual innervations system which innervates internal organs of the body through the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system (PNS). Depending upon the neurotransmitter and receptor used, the ANS fibers are classified as cholinergic or adrenergic neurons.

The preganglionic neurons of the sympathetic and the preganglionic and postganglionic neurons of the parasympathetic nervous system release the neurotransmitter acetylcholine (ACH) and hence are called cholinergic neurons.

The postganglionic neurons of the sympathetic nervous system releases catecholamine like norepinephrine(NE) and hence called as adrenergic neurons.

The cholinergic neurons store ACH in the synaptic terminals. They are myelinated to aid in faster neurotransmission. The ACH neurotransmitter released from preganglionic neurons activates the two receptors – nicotinic ACH and muscarinic receptors on the postganglionic neurons .

The postganglionic neurons releasing NE binds to the adrenergic receptors – Alpha 1 and 2, Beta 1, 2, and 3.
