The nurse is taking the blood pressure on an infant. The priority action is to:
1. Avoid using the popliteal artery to get the BP.
2. Explain that you are taking the infant's blood pressure.
3. Use a cuff that covers two-thirds of surface involved.
4. Anticipate a higher blood pressure on a small child.
