A nurse is caring for a child who has Addison's disease.
Question 1 of 5
Which of the following actions should the nurse take?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Teach the parents about cortisol replacement therapy. This is the most appropriate action as it addresses a specific treatment plan for the child's condition. Cortisol replacement therapy is crucial for managing adrenal insufficiency. Monitoring for fluid volume excess (
A) is not directly related to cortisol replacement therapy. Discussing hyperglycemia manifestations (
B) may be important but not as immediate as ensuring the parents understand cortisol replacement therapy. Placing the child on a low-sodium diet (
C) may be helpful but does not address the primary need for cortisol replacement.
