    A nurse is planning care for a client who has acute glomerulonephritis. Which intervention should the nurse include in the plan when caring for this client?

    Explanation & Rationale

    A. Fluid intake is usually restricted to prevent fluid overload, which can worsen edema and hypertension in acute glomerulonephritis. B. Administering antibiotics may be necessary, especially if the condition is secondary to a streptococcal infection, which is a common cause of acute glomerulonephritis. C. Rest is typically encouraged rather than frequent ambulation, as activity can exacerbate symptoms. D. Daily weights, not weekly, are crucial for monitoring fluid balance in acute glomerulonephritis.
