A patient with a recent diagnosis of renal failure that will require hemodialysis is being educated by the nurse in the dietary
management of the disease. Which of the patient's following statements shows an accurate understanding of this component of treatment? A. "I've made a list of high-phosphate foods so that I can try to avoid them."
B. "I'll increase the carbohydrates in my diet to provide sufficient energy."
C. "I've made a list of high-phosphate foods so that I can try to avoid them."
<h3>A. "I've made a list of high-phosphate foods so that I can try to avoid them."</h3>
Explanation:
When a patient is suffering from renal failure, the kidneys fail to remove high contents of phosphorous from the body. As we know the kidneys filter waste and unwanted fluids from our bodies, we should be very careful with what we eat when we suffer from renal failure.
Any extra intake of high-phosphate food may affect a person with renal failure more seriously because the kidneys cannot remove the extra phosphorous contents in their bodies.
High phosphorous food are associated with stroke, heart failure or even death. Therefore, it is wise to avoid them when one suffers from renal failure.
Being exposed to this violent environment/habitat contributes significantly to the behavior of the person witnessing it, as it is what they witness around them. If you've ever heard of the term "copycat" you'd know that it is based off of human adaptation to follow others when our brains are still developing to figure out who we are individually. That's why growing up in a good home environmental area is so important as it influences the way you perceive life.
