Rationale:
1. The child with periorbital edema and normal respiratory rate is more stable than the child with tachypnea and pulmonary congestion.
2. A child with respiratory distress should be the first client the nurse checks after receiving report.
3. The child with dependent and sacral edema and regular pulse is more stable than the child with tachypnea and pulmonary congestion.
4. The child with hepatomegaly and normal respiratory rate is more stable than the child with tachypnea and pulmonary congestion.
