Answer to Question 1

A, C, D

Feedback
Correct Prior to the cardiac catheterization, the nurse should assess the pedal pulse distal to the catheterization site.
Oxygen saturation via pulse oximetry must be evaluated prior to beginning the procedure. This assessment will provide the baseline for comparison following the catheterization.
Vital signs must be evaluated prior to beginning the procedure. This assessment will provide the baseline for comparison following the catheterization.
Incorrect The assessment of the radial pulses prior to the procedure would not be necessary.

Answer to Question 2

60-180 mm Hg
