Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a newborn who has hydrocephalus. Which of the following manifestations should the nurse expect to find?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Dilated scalp veins. In hydrocephalus, there is an accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid within the brain ventricles, leading to increased intracranial pressure. This pressure can cause dilation of scalp veins as a compensatory mechanism to help drain excess fluid. Overriding suture lines (
B) are associated with craniosynostosis, not hydrocephalus. Hypertension (
C) is not a typical manifestation of hydrocephalus. A backward sloping appearance of the forehead (
D) is seen in some genetic conditions like Down syndrome, not specifically in hydrocephalus.
