Question 1 of 5

A nurse is analyzing the laboratory data on a client who has dehydration. Which finding should the nurse anticipate in a client who has fluid volume deficit?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: Elevated blood urea nitrogen (BUN). In fluid volume deficit (dehydration), there is less fluid in the body leading to increased concentration of waste products like urea in the blood. This results in an elevated BUN level. Decreased serum osmolarity (
A) occurs in overhydration, not dehydration. Decreased hematocrit (
B) is seen in overhydration or fluid overload, not dehydration. Lower urine specific gravity (
D) is also seen in dehydration due to the increased concentration of solutes in the urine.
