A nurse in a provider's office is caring for a client who has a new diagnosis of tinea pedis, which of the following findings should the nurse expect?

Circular, erythematous patches on the scalp

Scaling and redness between the client's toes

Report of recent exposure to poison ivy

Report of a recent prescription for an antiseizure medication

Answer and Explanation

The Correct Answer is B

Choice A rationale: Circular, erythematous patches on the scalp are more indicative of tinea capitis, a fungal infection affecting the scalp, and not tinea pedis.
Choice B rationale: Tinea pedis, commonly known as athlete's foot, typically presents with symptoms such as scaling, redness, and itching between the toes. It is a fungal infection affecting the feet.
Choice C rationale: Poison ivy exposure would result in contact dermatitis, characterized by a rash and blistering, rather than the typical presentation of tinea pedis.
Choice D rationale: Antiseizure medications are not typically associated with the development of tinea pedis; the symptoms described are more consistent with a fungal infection.

Correct Answer is C

Explanation

Choice A rationale: tachycardia is an expected finding in burns patients due to the increase in metabolic rate and fluid loss.
Choice B rationale: a urine output of 25 ml/hr is too low for an individual with burns hence the need for adequate fluid resuscitation. However, this is not a priority sign compared with the difficulty in breathing.
Choice C rationale: difficulty in swallowing is an indicator of airway edema which may compromise the patients breathing and oxygenation which may result in death. Therefore, the healthcare provider should be notified to assess the need for intubation.
Choice D rationale: Pain of 6 on a scale of 0 to 10 is moderate and is expected due to burns and can be managed with analgesics and nonpharmacological interventions.

Correct Answer is ["31.5"]

Explanation

Rationale: the anterior chest wall and abdomen accounts for 18%, the left upper limb 9 % (4.5% anteriorly and 4.5% posteriorly), and the right upper limb 4.5% (2.25% anteriorly and 2.25% posteriorly).

(18+9+4.5) =31.5%
