Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who is receiving parenteral nutrition and identifies that the client has hypoglycemia. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D: Administer IV dextrose. Hypoglycemia in a client receiving parenteral nutrition indicates low blood sugar levels and requires immediate intervention to prevent complications like neurologic impairment or cardiac arrhythmias. Administering IV dextrose will quickly raise the client's blood sugar levels. Discontinuing the infusion (option
A) would further lower the client's blood sugar. Obtaining arterial blood gases (option
B) is not necessary for addressing hypoglycemia. Warming the formula to room temperature (option
C) is not the priority when dealing with hypoglycemia.
