A school-age child is admitted to the hospital with acute glomerulonephritis and oliguria. Which dietary menu items should be allowed for this child? (Select all that apply.)
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Apples, bananas, and strawberries are all suitable choices for a child with acute glomerulonephritis and oliguria. These fruits are high in water content and are not typically restricted in the diet of a child with this condition. It is important to provide hydration through food sources for a child experiencing oliguria. However, foods high in sodium, potassium, and protein (such as cheese) may need to be limited or modified based on the child's condition and the doctor's recommendations. Carrot sticks, although generally a healthy choice, may have high potassium content which could be restricted based on the child's individual dietary requirements.
