A nurse is caring for a toddler who has intussusception.

Which of the following manifestations should the nurse expect?

Choice A rationale
While placing a pillow under the child’s head might seem like a good idea, it’s actually not recommended during a seizure. The child’s movements could be unpredictable, and a pillow could potentially cause suffocation.
Choice B rationale
Removing the child’s eyeglasses is a good idea, but it’s not the first thing you should do. The child’s safety is the top priority, and eyeglasses can be removed once the child is safe.
Choice C rationale
Timing the seizure is important for medical professionals to know, but it’s not the first action to take. The child’s immediate safety is the priority.
Choice D rationale
Moving the child into a side-lying position is the priority. This position helps keep the airway clear and allows any vomit to exit the mouth, reducing the risk of choking.

Choice A rationale
Hypotension, or low blood pressure, is not typically associated with nephrotic syndrome. In fact, some patients with nephrotic syndrome may experience high blood pressure.
Choice B rationale
Generalized edema, or swelling, is a common characteristic of nephrotic syndrome. It occurs due to the loss of proteins in the urine, which leads to a decrease in the amount of protein in the blood. This decrease in blood protein levels causes fluid to move from the blood vessels into the tissues, leading to swelling.
Choice C rationale
Increased urinary output is not typically associated with nephrotic syndrome. In fact, some patients may experience decreased urine output.
Choice D rationale
Bright red blood in the urine is not a typical symptom of nephrotic syndrome. Hematuria, or blood in the urine, when present in nephrotic syndrome, is usually microscopic and not visible to the naked eye.
