Question 1 of 5

A client with macrocytic anemia has a burn on her foot and states that she had been watching television while lying on a heating pad. Which action should be the nurse's first response?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Macrocytic anemia, often due to vitamin B12 or folate deficiency, can cause peripheral neuropathy, leading to diminished sensations and increased risk of burns from prolonged heat exposure. The nurse's first action should be to check for sensory deficits to assess the underlying cause of the injury. Assessing for abuse, documenting, or dressing the wound are secondary actions.
