Question 1 of 5
A nurse is caring for a 6-week-old infant who has a pyloric stenosis. Which of the following clinical manifestations should the nurse expect?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Distended neck veins are typically associated with conditions that lead to increased central venous pressure, such as heart failure or fluid overload, not pyloric stenosis. Projectile vomiting is a classic symptom of pyloric stenosis due to the obstruction caused by the thickened pylorus, which prevents food from passing into the duodenum. A ridged abdomen can indicate underlying issues, such as peritonitis, but is not typical for pyloric stenosis. Red currant jelly stools are associated with intussusception, not pyloric stenosis.
