A nurse is caring for a preschooler who has brain tumor.
Which of the following findings is the priority for the nurse to the provider?

Choice A rationale

Hyperactivity can be a normal behavior in preschoolers. It may or may not be related to the brain tumor.

Choice B rationale

Pruritus is not typically associated with a brain tumor. It could be related to other conditions or medications.

Choice C rationale

Diplopia, or double vision, can be a sign of increased intracranial pressure, which is a serious complication of a brain tumor. This should be reported to the provider immediately.

Choice D rationale

Nightmares are common in children and may not be directly related to the brain tumor. While they should be addressed, they are not the priority in this case.

Choice A rationale

Increased urine output is not a typical indication of effective chest physiotherapy treatment in a child with cystic fibrosis.

Choice B rationale

Increased expectoration, or coughing up and spitting out mucus, is a sign that chest physiotherapy is effective. The goal of chest physiotherapy is to help clear the thick, sticky mucus from the lungs of children with cystic fibrosis.

Reduced pain is not a typical indication of effective chest physiotherapy treatment in a child with cystic fibrosis.

Choice D rationale

An increased heart rate is not a typical indication of effective chest physiotherapy treatment in a child with cystic fibrosis.
