A child who has acute gastroenteritis but is able to tolerate oral fluids.


Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a child who has acute gastroenteritis but is able to tolerate oral fluids. The nurse should anticipate providing which of the following types of fluid?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale:
Correct
Answer: A - Oral rehydration solution


Rationale: Oral rehydration solution is the most appropriate choice as it contains the right balance of electrolytes and glucose to help replace fluids lost due to gastroenteritis. Water alone may not provide enough electrolytes. Broth and diluted apple juice lack the necessary electrolytes and may even worsen diarrhea. Oral rehydration solution is specifically formulated to help prevent dehydration and restore electrolyte balance, making it the best choice for a child with acute gastroenteritis.
