Rationale: Clients taking loop diuretics are at risk for urinary loss of potassium, calcium, magnesium, and thiamine, and should be encouraged to add foods that are good sources for these nutrients into their diet. Vitamins A and B12 and iron are important nutrients but are not affected by loop diuretics.

A, B, D
Feedback:
Diarrhea is a possible complication of tube feedings. This can be caused by infusion of a formula that is too cold, bacterially contaminated formula, or feeding too rapidly.
