A nurse is assessing a child who has nephrotic syndrome. Which of the following findings should the nurse expect?
Explanation & Rationale
A. Facial edema is a common finding in nephrotic syndrome due to fluid retention caused by protein loss in the urine. B. Smokey brown urine is more commonly associated with glomerulonephritis, not nephrotic syndrome. C. Polyuria (excessive urination) is not typically seen in nephrotic syndrome; instead, oliguria (low urine output) may be present. D. Hypertension is not a hallmark of nephrotic syndrome but may be present in some cases. Edema and proteinuria are the more prominent signs.
