Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a 15-year-old adolescent. The nurse reviews the EMR and determines that the adolescent is at risk for developing which of the following complications?
Correct Answer: B,C
Rationale: The correct answers are B (pneumothorax) and C (dehydration). Pneumothorax is a potential complication in adolescents due to their rapid growth, which can lead to increased risk of lung issues. Dehydration is also a concern as adolescents may not prioritize hydration, leading to various health issues. Muscle cramps (
A) are common but not a significant risk in this scenario. Anemia (
D) is more commonly associated with nutritional deficiencies and blood disorders, not necessarily age-related risks in adolescents.
