An infant is admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit with exstrophy of the bladder. what covering should the nurse use to protect the exposed area?

Respuesta :

Moist sterile dressing must be placed to cover the bladder. This will prevent the bladder from drying up. The goal in putting a cover is to prevent loss of moisture and prevent infection. Covering the organ can also prevent trauma in  the protruding part.
