Question

"During the emergent (resuscitative) phase of burn injury, which finding indicates that the client requires additional volume with fluid resuscitation?"

Answer 1

Answer: Urine Output

Step-by-step explanation:

Burn-injury patients should be monitored for their blood pressure (low bp), heart rate (tachycardia) and urine output. The best indicative factor for a good resuscitative fluid therapy is urine output. Which is 0.5mL/kg in adults. A low urine output means that the patient is dehydrated.
