A4-year-old child is being treated for nephrotic syndrome. what assessment finding indicates that the child's condition is improving?

Question options

1 The child gains weight.

2 Urine output decreases.

3 Urine specific gravity decreases.

4 The child's hemoglobin and hematocrit increase.

"Urine specific gravity decreases" is the right answer.

Explanation:

Nephrotic syndrome is a kidney disorder that causes the body to excrete too much protein in the urine. The high amount of protein dissolved in urine results in increased urine specific gravity. Specific gravity is the screening test that measures the weight of the urine as compared to water. The decrease in Urine specific gravity indicates a lower level of protein in the urine. This assessment indicates that the child's condition is improving.
