Elevated anti-diuretic (ADH) levels and hyponatremia is seen with which of the following disorders?

Option A (Place the infant in reverse Trendelenburg position) and option B (Place the infant in the knee to chest position) are not the immediate actions to address this situation. While these positions might be used in specific situations, assessing blood pressure is more appropriate in this context to evaluate for potential vascular issues.

Option C. Take the infant's blood pressure in all extremities.

In an infant with weaker femoral pulses compared to the brachial and radial pulses, there might be a concern about coarctation of the aorta (a narrowing of the aorta), which can affect blood flow to the lower extremities. To confirm this and assess for potential issues, taking blood pressure measurements in all four extremities is crucial. This comparison can help identify pressure differentials between the upper and lower extremities, which is a hallmark sign of coarctation of the aorta.

Option D (Notify the Physician) is generally a good step, but taking the blood pressure in all extremities should be done first to provide comprehensive information for the physician when discussing the infant's condition.

A. "Palliative care focuses on the care of the client." - This statement is accurate. Palliative care is centered around providing comprehensive care that addresses the physical, emotional, social, and spiritual needs of the patient.

B. "Palliative care is an inter-professional approach to the delivery of care." - This statement is also accurate. Palliative care typically involves a team of healthcare professionals, including physicians, nurses, social workers, chaplains, and other specialists, who work collaboratively to provide holistic care.

C. "Palliative care is the same as hospice care." - This statement is incorrect. Palliative care and hospice care share similarities in that they both focus on improving the quality of life for patients with serious illnesses, but they are not the same. The key difference is that palliative care can be provided at any stage of a serious illness, even alongside curative treatments, while hospice care is typically provided when a patient has a terminal illness with a prognosis of six months or less to live.

D. "Palliative care includes symptom management in the cent" - This statement is accurate. Symptom management and relief of distressing symptoms are essential components of palliative care, with the goal of improving the patient's quality of life.

So, the statement in option C is incorrect, and the registered nurse should correct it by explaining the distinction between palliative care and hospice care to the client's family.
