ATI Nur 307 Pediatrics Final Exam Questions
Extract:
A nurse is caring for a male infant who has a palpable mass in the upper right quadrant and stools mixed with blood and mucus.
Question 1 of 5
The nurse should recognize that which of the following diagnoses is associated with these findings?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Intussusception. This condition is characterized by the telescoping of one segment of the intestine into another, causing obstruction and potentially compromising blood supply. The classic triad of symptoms includes colicky abdominal pain, currant jelly-like stools, and a palpable sausage-shaped mass. These findings are indicative of intestinal obstruction and ischemia, which align with the presentation described. Tracheoesophageal fistula, hypertrophic pyloric stenosis, and inguinal hernia do not typically present with the specific symptoms mentioned, making them less likely diagnoses in this context.
