Myoglobinuria is occurring with a child with extensive partial thickness burns. The nurse knows that this is occurring because:
1. The child's stomach has a large amount of acid and is causing the stomach to bleed.
2. It is a byproduct of the muscle damage due to the extensive burns.
3. The kidneys are failing.
4. The child has consumed a large amount of red oral fluids.

Feedback
1. The myoglobinuria is related to the muscle, not a stomach bleed.
2. The extensive damage causes the myoglobinuria.
3. The kidneys are working harder at this point, but it is not the cause for myoglobinuria.
4. The child taking in red oral fluids would not be noted at this time.
