Identify when the nurse should call a Rapid Response for a client?

Answer Choices:

Correct Answer:

Blood glucose level 35

Rationale:

🟠 Rapid response is triggered by signs of acute deterioration: hypoglycemia, hypotension, arrhythmias, or no pulse.

🟠 Blood glucose <40 mg/dL is a critical hypoglycemic event.

🟠 New-onset tachycardia can precede cardiac arrest.

🟠 Pulselessness = Code Blue, needs immediate CPR.

🟠 Stable vitals = no urgent action.
