A nurse is caring for a child who has a suspected diagnosis of cystic fibrosis.
Question 3 of 5
A nurse is caring for a child who has a suspected diagnosis of cystic fibrosis. Which of the following diagnostic tests will confirm the diagnosis?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The sweat chloride test is the gold standard for diagnosing cystic fibrosis as it measures elevated chloride levels in sweat, which is a hallmark of the condition. A stool fat content analysis can indicate malabsorption but is not specific to cystic fibrosis. Pulmonary function tests assess lung function but are not diagnostic for cystic fibrosis. A sputum culture identifies infections but does not confirm the diagnosis.
