ATI Comprehensive 2024 Exit Exam with NGN -Nurselytic

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C. The nurse should assess the client who just drank orange juice for a low blood glucose level first because hypoglycemia can lead to serious complications like seizures or loss of consciousness. Assessing and addressing the client's blood glucose level promptly is crucial to prevent harm.


Choice A is not the priority as the client scheduled for a procedure in 1 hour can wait for assessment until after the client with low blood glucose is evaluated.


Choice B, the client who received pain medication 30 minutes ago, can be assessed after the client with low blood glucose since the medication's effects have likely already taken place.


Choice D, the client with 100 mL of fluid remaining in the IV bag, can also wait for assessment as it does not pose an immediate threat to the client's health compared to low blood glucose.


Therefore, prioritizing the assessment of the client with low blood glucose is crucial to ensure their safety and well-being.
