The AGACNP knows that when evaluating a patient with suspected acute pyelonephritis, which of the following is not a common feature?
- A. Pyuria
- B. Fever
- C. CVA tenderness
- D. Gross hematuria
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: While pyuria, fever, and CVA tenderness are common features of acute pyelonephritis, gross hematuria is less commonly associated with this condition. In acute pyelonephritis, the inflammatory process primarily affects the renal parenchyma and pelvis, leading to symptoms such as fever, chills, flank pain, pyuria (presence of pus in the urine), and CVA tenderness (tenderness over the costovertebral angle). Hematuria in acute pyelonephritis is more likely to be microscopic rather than gross.
