The water spilled over her left hand causing second degree, partial thickness, scalding burns to her fingers, hand, and an area surrounding the left, anterior forearm, approximating 3% total body surface area (TBSA). The scald burns scattered throughout the hand and fingers and there is a small circumferential burn on the forearm. She is healthy and has no medical history, taking daily vitamins with breakfast. She lives in an apartment with her two children, ages six and nine years and is the primary provider for her family.M.J.’s neighbor drove her to the emergency department (ED) of the local city hospital. The emergency team was notified for assessment and care, and after the initial evaluation, she was transferred to a regional hospital with a Burn Center and admitted to a room on the Burn Care floor. The neighbor is currently watching M.J.’s children until her parents arrive from out of town.1. Evaluate the information in the case and determine the Top 3 Priority concerns or cues.a._______________________________________________________________________b._______________________________________________________________________c._______________________________________________________________________ 2. Based on the priority concerns, which action(s) should the nurse perform? Select all that apply.A. do a head-to-toe assessment.B. Evaluate the pain level using a pain scale.C. Obtain a full set of vital signs.D. Discuss infection control guidelines for the burned client.E. Provide emotional support.F. Encourage the client to verbalize concerns. 3. Which of these factors predispose the client to be transferred to the Burn Care Center?A. Current age.B. The depth of the burn is partial thickness/second degree.C. The burn involves the hands.D. The burn is a scald type of injury. 4. The nurse reviews the agency policy on burn classification. What assumptions can the nurse make, based on this chart about M.J.’s situation?BURN CLASSIFICATIONSSuperficial: First DegreeRed, dry, painful without blisters, blanches with pressure. Do not include TBSA% estimate. Epithelium injured but intact. Examples: Sunburn or propane flash.Partial Thickness: Second DegreeRed, blisters, weepy, shiny, blanches with pressure, moderate to severe pain. Likely to scar. Epithelium and varying layers of dermis are destroyed. Example: ScaldFull Thickness: Third DegreeRed, dry, white, charred, leathery in appearance. Hair follicle removes easily, diminished pain. High probability of deformity and scarring. Epidermis and dermis are destroyed. Extends to subcutaneous layers, muscle, and bones. Example: Flame A.The burn will remain dry with minimal pain.B. The depth of the burn is into the epithelium and will be painful.C. The burn is considered deep and should not have pain.D. The hair will not grow back.5. The nurse completes a head-to-toe assessment and documents the findings. Circle or highlight the area on the electronic record that is the highest priority.  Name: M.J.Health Care Provider: J.
