Question 5 of 5
The client diagnosed with a partial-thickness burn is prescribed mafenide acetate. Which intervention should the emergency department (ED) nurse implement when applying this medication?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Mafenide acetate (Sulfamylon) is a topical antimicrobial. The medication causes pain or a burning sensation following its application; therefore, the client should be premedicated. The serum sodium level is not affected by mafenide acetate (it is affected by silver nitrate), urine concentration is not a concern with this medication, and the Rule of Nine should have been done prior to prescribing.
