Question 1 of 5

The nurse is caring for a patient who suddenly becomes confused and tries to remove an intravenous (IV) infusion. Which priority action will the nurse take?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Assess the patient. The nurse's priority is to assess the patient to determine the cause of sudden confusion and agitation. This may be due to various reasons such as hypoxia, hypoglycemia, infection, or medication side effects. Assessing the patient's vital signs, oxygen saturation, blood glucose level, and reviewing medication administration can help identify the underlying cause. Gathering restraint supplies (
B) should not be the initial action as it may not address the root cause of the confusion and can lead to further agitation. Trying alternatives to restraint (
C) is important, but assessing the patient should come first. Calling the healthcare provider for a restraint order (
D) should only be considered after other interventions have been attempted.
