Question 1 of 5
On examination the hands and feet of a 6 hours old infant is cyanotic without signs of distress. The nurse should document these findings as:
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Acrocyanosis is a condition commonly seen in newborns where the hands and feet appear blue or purple in color due to decreased circulation in the peripheral blood vessels. It is usually a normal finding in newborns and is not associated with distress or poor oxygenation. Unlike central cyanosis which indicates a more serious underlying issue affecting oxygen levels in the blood, acrocyanosis is a benign and self-limiting condition. It is important for the nurse to recognize and document acrocyanosis to differentiate it from other potentially concerning conditions.
