A nurse is planning care for a client who has acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Which of the following interventions should the nurse include in the plan?

A. Place in a prone position. Improves oxygenation by promoting better ventilation-perfusion matching in ARDS. B. Encourage oral intake of 3,000 mL/day. Clients are often on fluid restriction or mechanical ventilation; excessive fluids can worsen pulmonary edema. C. Offer high-protein, high-carb foods frequently. Nutrition is important but many clients require enteral feeding or are NPO initially. D. Administer low-flow oxygen via nasal cannula. Inadequate for ARDS; these clients usually require high-flow or mechanical ventilation.
