Question 1 of 5

A nurse is performing an admission assessment on a client. Which finding should the nurse identify as an indication that the client is dehydrated?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Skin tenting present. Skin tenting is a classic sign of dehydration, indicating decreased skin turgor due to fluid loss. When the skin is pulled up and remains "tented," it suggests dehydration. A: High blood pressure is not a typical sign of dehydration; it may indicate other issues like hypertension. B: Jugular vein distention is more commonly associated with heart failure or fluid overload. C: A heart rate of 50 is not necessarily indicative of dehydration; it could be normal for some individuals. In summary, skin tenting is the most specific indicator of dehydration compared to the other options provided.
