ATI Capstone Week 13 Exam | Nurselytic

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: A 10-year-old child who has sickle cell anemia who reports severe chest pain. Sickle cell anemia can lead to vaso-occlusive crises, causing severe pain and potentially life-threatening complications like acute chest syndrome. Chest pain in this child could indicate a serious crisis requiring immediate assessment and intervention to prevent respiratory compromise or other complications.

A: A 10-year-old child with asthma and a PCO₂ of 37 mm Hg may need monitoring but is not an immediate priority over a child with severe chest pain.
C: A 1-year-old toddler with roseola and a temperature of 39°C may require assessment but is not as urgent as a child with severe chest pain.
D: A 7-year-old child with diabetes insipidus and a urine specific gravity of 1.016 may require evaluation but is not as critical as a child with severe chest pain.
