A. A client with multisystem failure secondary to a motor vehicle collision. B. A client in end-stage liver failure who is experiencing esophageal bleeding. C. A client with Adult Respiratory Distress Syndrome who is on a ventilator. D. A client with chest tubes secondary to a stab wound to the chest.
