    ATI RN Comprehensive Predictor 2023 Updated Proctored Exam

    A nurse has just received change-of-shift report for four clients. Which of the following clients should the nurse assess first?

    Explanation & Rationale

    A. A client who has recently received pain medication should be assessed for effectiveness but is not in immediate danger. B. A client who received orange juice for a low blood glucose level needs to be assessed for a return to normal glucose levels as hypoglycemia is a priority concern. C. A client with 100 mL of fluid remaining in the IV bag can wait for assessment as their fluid needs can be managed once the infusion is complete. D. A client scheduled for a procedure in 1 hour is important to assess, but their immediate clinical needs may be less critical than a client with hypoglycemia.
