Newborn who has hydrocephalus


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: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Dilated scalp veins. In hydrocephalus, there is an accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid in the brain, leading to increased intracranial pressure. This can cause dilation of the scalp veins due to the increased pressure in the cranial vault. A: A backward sloping appearance of the forehead is seen in conditions like Down syndrome, not specific to hydrocephalus. C: Over-riding suture lines are seen in craniosynostosis, not hydrocephalus. D: Hypertension is not a typical manifestation of hydrocephalus.
