A nurse is assisting with the plan of care for a client who is scheduled for continuous peritoneal dialysis. Which of the following actions should the nurse recommend?

Rationale: A. Encourage the client to increase fluid intake: Clients undergoing peritoneal dialysis often have fluid restrictions based on residual renal function and ultrafiltration goals. Increasing fluid intake without specific provider guidance may lead to fluid overload. B. Obtain the client's weight: Daily weight measurement is essential in peritoneal dialysis to assess fluid removal effectiveness and detect signs of fluid retention or dehydration. Weight changes help guide dialysis fluid volume and concentration adjustments. C. Palpate the access site for a thrill: A thrill is assessed in clients with an arteriovenous (AV) fistula or graft used for hemodialysis, not peritoneal dialysis. Peritoneal dialysis uses a catheter placed in the abdominal cavity, which does not produce a thrill. D. Auscultate the access site for a bruit: A bruit is associated with blood flow through an AV fistula or graft used in hemodialysis. In peritoneal dialysis, the access is a soft catheter, and auscultation for a bruit is not applicable or expected.
