Question 1 of 5
A nurse is assessing a school-age child who is receiving prednisolone. For which of the following adverse effects should the nurse monitor?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Prolonged wound healing. Prednisolone is a corticosteroid that can suppress the immune system, leading to delayed wound healing. The nurse should monitor for this adverse effect by observing any wounds for signs of slow healing or infection.
Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because hypotension, Stevens-Johnson syndrome, and renal failure are not commonly associated with prednisolone use in school-age children. Monitoring for these adverse effects may not be necessary unless specific symptoms are present.
