Safety = least restrictive
NGN = recognize → analyze → act → evaluate
Quiz_________________?
A nurse enters a client's room and notes the following findings:
Respiratory rate: 28/min
Oxygen saturation: 90% on room air
Client is sitting upright and using accessory muscles
Blood pressure: 136/82 mm Hg
Heart rate: 104 bpm
Which action should the nurse take first?
A. Obtain a STAT chest x-ray
B. Apply supplemental oxygen
C. Notify the provider
D. Obtain a full set of vital signs -
Answer
2
, Correct Answer: B. Apply supplemental oxygen
Rationale
-Breathing is compromised (tachypnea, accessory muscle use, borderline SpO₂).
-The nurse does not delay intervention to collect more data when oxygenation is threatened.
-Applying oxygen is within nursing scope and addresses immediate safety.
Why the others are wrong:
-A: Diagnostic tests come after stabilization.
-C: The nurse intervenes before calling.
-D: Enough data already shows a breathing problem.
NCLEX Insight: If breathing is impaired, intervene immediately — assessment is already
complete.

Rationale:
3

Quiz_________________?
Which client should the nurse assess first?
A. Client with chronic back pain requesting PRN medication
B. Client with anxiety awaiting biopsy results
C. Client with shallow respirations after opioid administration
D. Client requesting assistance with hygiene -
Answer
Correct Answer: C. Client with shallow respirations after opioid administration
Rationale

-Maslow + ABC place respiratory status above pain and emotional needs.
NCLEX Insight:
Pain is important — until breathing isn't adequate.
