Extract:

Infant admitted with pyloric stenosis.


Question 1 of 5

An infant has been admitted to the pediatric unit with a diagnosis of pyloric stenosis. What would the nurse expect in the plan of care for this client?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Preparation for surgical correction. Pyloric stenosis is a condition where the muscle at the outlet of the stomach thickens, leading to blockage and vomiting. Surgical correction, known as a pyloromyotomy, is the definitive treatment. Analgesic medication (choice
A) is not the primary intervention for pyloric stenosis but may be used postoperatively. Doing a barium enema (choice
C) is not indicated for pyloric stenosis; it is used for other gastrointestinal conditions. Beginning thickened feedings (choice
D) is not appropriate as the infant is unable to digest food properly due to the blockage. Thus, the most appropriate plan of care for the infant with pyloric stenosis is surgical correction to alleviate the blockage and allow for normal feeding.
