gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
gives thenurse the morning labs. Which of the following labs would require that
gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
the nurse call thephysician and inform the healthcare provider about the client‘s
gg gg g g gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
abnormalities?

Answer: 1 gg
Rationale: When the nurse is caring for several clients, all of the labs should be
gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
checkedfrequently throughout the shift to assess for any abnormalities. The WBC
gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
in option 1 is abnormal. (Normal WBC 4,000–10,000 mm3.) All of the other lab
gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
results are within acceptable range; therefore, the results should not be called in to
gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg gg
the physician.
