Question 1 of 5
A client with pancreatitis is receiving 0.9% normal saline, and the prescribed IV infusion rate was increased from 100 mL/hour to 150 mL/hour. Which assessment finding indicates to the nurse that the prescription has a therapeutic outcome?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: A decrease in BUN indicates improved renal perfusion, a therapeutic outcome of increased IV fluids. Increased hematocrit suggests fluid volume deficit, increased blood glucose is undesirable, and amylase decrease is not directly related to fluid increase.
