Correct Answer is D
Explanation
Rationale:
A. Dry mouth is expected postoperatively, especially if the child is not drinking adequate fluids, but it is not a sign of a complication.
B. Mild to moderate pain is expected after a tonsillectomy and should be managed with analgesics.
C. Dried flecks of blood in oral secretions can be normal immediately after surgery, but active bleeding would be concerning.
D. Frequent swallowing is a sign of possible postoperative bleeding, which is a serious complication that requires immediate evaluation and intervention.
Correct Answer is C
Explanation
Rationale:
A. Neurologic function is not typically affected by nephrotic syndrome, so improvement in this area is not an indicator of recovery.
B. Weight gain might indicate fluid retention rather than recovery in nephrotic syndrome.
C. The absence of protein in the urine indicates that the kidneys are functioning properly and that the syndrome is resolving. Proteinuria is a hallmark of nephrotic syndrome, so its resolution is a key sign of recovery.
D. A negative gram stain is more relevant to infections, not nephrotic syndrome.
