A nurse is preparing to obtain a daily weight from a client who has chronic kidney disease. Which of the following actions should the nurse implement?
Explanation & Rationale
A. Weighing at a convenient time can lead to inconsistent results; accuracy depends on consistency. B. Weighing the client at the same time each day (preferably in the morning, after voiding and before eating) ensures accurate monitoring of fluid status. C. Balancing the scale at minus two is incorrect and could lead to inaccurate weights. D. Using different scales can produce variations in measurements; the same scale should be used daily.
