Prior to beginning a blood transfusion, it is essential for the nurse to:
1. check the client's intake and output.
2. question the client about any allergies.
3. measure the client's vital signs, including temperature.
4. determine if the client has had any previous transfusions.
Question 2

1. in the lower extremities when possible.
2. on the affected side of a client who has had a mastectomy.
3. adjacent to a functioning arteriovenous fistula.
4. on the distal end of a vein in the arm.
The patient and his family meet with the nurse to discuss progress on the patient care plan.
