A toddler weighing 20 kg with a full-thickness burn to 10% of body
Question 1 of 5
A nurse is collecting data from a toddler who weighs 20 kg (44 lb) and has a full thickness burn to 10% of this body. Which of the following findings should the nurse report to the provider?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Increased restlessness. A toddler with a full-thickness burn to 10% of the body surface area is at risk for hypovolemic shock due to fluid loss, leading to increased restlessness. This is a critical finding that the nurse should report to the provider for immediate intervention.
Choice B: Respiratory rate 25/min is within normal range for a toddler and not directly related to the burn injury.
Choice C: Bowel sounds 20/min are within normal range and not a priority concern in this scenario.
Choice D: Urinary output of 35 mL/hr is below the expected range for a toddler but not the most critical finding to report in this situation.
In summary, increased restlessness is the most concerning finding indicating potential hypovolemic shock, requiring immediate attention from the provider.
