Extract:


Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who is hemorrhaging and hypotensive from esophageal variceal bleeding. Which of the following actions should the nurse take first?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Verify that the client has adequate IV access. This is the priority action because the client is hypotensive from hemorrhaging, indicating a need for immediate fluid resuscitation to stabilize their condition. Without adequate IV access, the nurse cannot administer life-saving fluids and medications. Administering a vasopressor (
A) or preparing for endoscopic intervention (
D) may be necessary later but addressing the hypotension is the priority. Placing the client in Trendelenburg position (
C) is not recommended as it can increase intracranial pressure.
