A child has experienced several episodes of vomiting. After the nurse reviews the need to provide only clear liquids, the parent of the child reports making clear liquid popsicles out of flavored gelatin for the child. Which information should the nurse obtain about the popsicles?
Correct answer
B
Rationale
The color of gelatin (e.g., red) could mimic blood if vomiting occurs, potentially confusing assessment of the child's condition.
