Answer:

Dehydration as evidenced by dry skin

Explanation:

The nurse might first notice that the patient's skin is not as elastic as it should be. This can be done through a pinch test.  Pinching the skin and watching to see how quickly the skin regains its original surface structure.  If the skins stays pinched and takes a few seconds to regain original surface structure, the patient is likely to be dehydrated.
