Question 1 of 5

A nurse on a pediatric unit is preparing to admit a preschooler after receiving a transfer report from a nurse in the emergency department. Which of the following findings should the nurse report to the provider immediately?

Correct Answer: D

The insertion site of the central line catheter being erythematous with purulent drainage indicates a potential infection, which can lead to sepsis in a pediatric patient. Immediate reporting to the provider is crucial for prompt intervention to prevent further complications.

Choice A could indicate constipation, which is significant but not an immediate concern.
Choice B suggests emotional distress,
Choice C indicates fever, which may require monitoring but not immediate intervention.
