Question 1 of 5
Among the following,which is not a clinical finding of a severely dehydrated patient?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Pitting edema. Severe dehydration leads to intravascular volume depletion, causing skin pallor, cool skin, tachycardia, thready pulse, and concentrated urine with high blood sodium. Pitting edema is not a typical finding in severe dehydration as it is more commonly seen in conditions like heart failure or kidney disease where there is excess fluid accumulation in the body.
Therefore, the absence of pitting edema in a severely dehydrated patient is expected.
