The nurse is assessing a child with acute glomerulonephritis who presents to the clinic with increased fatigue, facial puffiness, decreased appetite. The child's urine sample is dark yellow in color. Which additional finding should the nurse report to the healthcare provider?
Correct answer
C
Rationale
Low blood pressure (88/50 mm Hg) in acute glomerulonephritis may indicate severe fluid shifts or renal dysfunction, requiring urgent reporting. Weight loss, strep test, and rash are less immediately critical.
