kidney function

 

Can someone please help answer this question? I am not sure if I am right about my options: either serum creatinine or specific gravity. For serum creatinine, I am a bit confused because of the age factor of the client which could tamper with the accuracy of the result.

A nurse is concerned about renal function in an 84-year-old client who is taking several medications. what is a priority for the nurse to assess?

(a)   Specific gravity

(b)  sodium levels

(c)   troponin level

(d)   serum creatinine
