Question 1 of 5

A nurse is reviewing the laboratory results of a client who has a pressure ulcer. The nurse should identify an elevation in which of the following laboratory values as an indication that the client has developed an infection?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: WBC count. An elevated white blood cell count indicates the presence of infection as WBCs increase in response to an infection to help fight off pathogens. This is a common sign of infection in patients with pressure ulcers. The other choices (A: RBC count, C: Potassium, D: BUN) are not typically indicators of infection in this context. RBC count is related to anemia, potassium to electrolyte balance, and BUN to kidney function.
Therefore, an elevated WBC count is the most relevant indicator of infection in this scenario.
