Question 1 of 5

The nurse is caring for a school aged child with glomerulonephritis. Which of the following findings requires IMMEDIATE attention?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B because lethargy, confusion, headache, and double vision are symptoms of hypertensive encephalopathy, a serious complication of glomerulonephritis. This requires immediate attention to prevent further neurological damage or stroke. Dark brown urine (
A) may indicate hematuria, but it does not require immediate attention like neurological symptoms. Elevated lab values (
