Question 1 of 5
The nurse is caring for the client who has severe craniocerebral trauma. Which finding indicates that the client is developing DI?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Elevated glucose levels are not associated with DI. The lack of ADH that occurs in DI results in excreting a large amount of pale, dilute urine. The urine of clients with DI is very dilute and therefore has a very low, not high, specific gravity. Decrease in level of consciousness is not directly associated with DI but rather with craniocerebral swelling or bleeding from the trauma.
