Question:

The nurse receives a report on the medical/surgical unit. Which of the following clients should the nurse see FIRST?

A A client two hours after a cast was put on his left arm complaining his arm feels “funny.”
explanation

Complaining of nausea after a hysterectomy is a potential problem, not a current one. On the other hand, an arm in a cast that “feels funny” is related to impaired circulation and needs immediate assessment. The client with the O2 saturation of 93% may sound tempting to pick, but no where does it indicate that the client is in distress.
