Question 1 of 5
A nurse is assessing a school-age child whose blood glucose level is 280 mg/dL. Which of the following findings should the nurse expect?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Lethargy. A blood glucose level of 280 mg/dL indicates hyperglycemia. Lethargy is a common symptom of hyperglycemia in school-age children. High blood glucose levels can lead to fatigue and decreased energy levels, resulting in lethargy. Tremors (choice
