A client experienced blood loss from surgery. What is the impact of this blood loss on the kidney's functioning?

Question

1. Altered filtering ability of the kidneys
2. No impact on kidney function
3. Absorption of calcium and phosphate decreased
4. Stimulation of the kidneys to produce erythropoietin

Answer 1

4
Rationale 1: The kidneys would produce the hormone erythropoietin in response to a client experiencing blood loss during surgery. Erythropoietin then stimulates the bone marrow to produce red blood cells. The filtering ability of the kidneys would not be directly affected by blood lost during surgery.
Rationale 2: Blood loss does cause an impact on the kidneys. The kidneys would produce the hormone erythropoietin in response to a client experiencing blood loss during surgery. Erythropoietin then stimulates the bone marrow to produce red blood cells.
Rationale 3: The kidneys would produce the hormone erythropoietin in response to a client experiencing blood loss during surgery. Erythropoietin then stimulates the bone marrow to produce red blood cells. A decrease in the absorption of calcium and phosphate would not occur as a response to the blood loss.
Rationale 4: The kidneys would produce the hormone erythropoietin in response to a client experiencing blood loss during surgery. Erythropoietin then stimulates the bone marrow to produce red blood cells.
