When using the urgent vs. nonurgent approach to client care, the nurse determines that the priority finding is three episodes of vomiting. This can indicate digoxin toxicity, which requires immediate intervention; therefore, this is the priority finding. B A 4monthold infant who has heart failure requires 3 to 4 oz of formula every 3 hr to adequately address caloric needs; therefore, there is another finding that is the nurse's priority. A feeding schedule of every 2 hr does not allow sufficient rest time between feedings, and a feeding schedule of every 4 hr requires consumption of a higher volume, which is often not tolerated by the infant. C A weight of 5.9 kg (13 lb) is an expected finding for a 4monthold infant who weighed 3.2 kg (7 lb) at birth; therefore, there is another finding that is the nurse's priority. The infant should gain 680 g (1.5 lb) per month until the age of 5 months, and double his birth weight at the age of 6 months.
