A nurse is collecting data from a toddler who weighs 20 kg (44 lb) and has a full-thickness burn to 10% of his body. Which of the following findings should the nurse report to the provider?

A. Tremors are not a typical clinical manifestation of heart failure. They may be associated with conditions like hyperthyroidism or certain medications.

B. Bradycardia (slow heart rate) is not a typical finding in heart failure. In fact, tachycardia (fast heart rate) is more commonly associated with this condition.

C. Increased appetite is not a typical clinical manifestation of heart failure. Children with heart failure may actually experience poor appetite due to decreased cardiac output.

D. Correct. Tachypnea (rapid breathing) is a common clinical manifestation of heart
failure. It can occur as the body tries to compensate for the decreased cardiac output by increasing respiratory rate in an effort to maintain oxygenation.

A. Administering an antidepressant is an important intervention for a client with major depressive disorder. However, before initiating any treatment, it is crucial to assess the client's risk for self-harm or suicidal ideation.

B. Assisting the client in completing activities of daily living (ADLs) is important for their overall well-being, but the most immediate concern for a client with major depressive disorder is to assess their safety and risk for self-harm.

C. Correct. Assessing the client's risk for self-harm or suicidal ideation is the first priority.
This information will help determine the level of intervention and support needed.

D. Encouraging the client to attend group therapy is a valuable intervention, but it is not the first priority. Safety concerns must be addressed before implementing other
therapeutic interventions.
