A nurse is planning care for a client who has M├â┬®ni├â┬¿re's disease and is experiencing episodes of vertigo. Which of the following interventions should the nurse include in the plan?
Correct answer
D
Rationale
A low-sodium diet helps reduce fluid retention in the body, which can decrease the pressure in the inner ear and help manage the symptoms of M├â┬®ni├â┬¿re's disease. Reducing sodium intake to 1,500-2,000 milligrams per day is often recommended.
