The physician has ordered a low-potassium diet for a client with renal failure. Which food should be limited due to its potassium content?
- A. Broccoli
- B. Bananas
- C. Lean beef
- D. White rice
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Bananas, with ~400-450 mg potassium per fruit, must be limited on a low-potassium diet in renal failure, as impaired kidneys can't excrete excess, risking hyperkalemia broccoli's moderate, beef and rice's low potassium fit better. Nurses teach this, preventing cardiac issues, tailoring diets for renal safety.

The left arm isn't inherently higher (C) it's false; differences are minimal and individual. Left arm use (D) is convention, not proximity (it's not significantly closer). C's absolute claim lacks evidence, making it the untrue statement, as BP symmetry is typical unless pathology exists.
