1. Blood pressure 110/68 mmHg 2. Apical heart rate 80; radial beats per minute 68 3. Respiratory rate 20 per minute 4. Temperature 98.8F Title: Which of the following assessment findings would suggest to the nurse that a client is at risk for ... Post by: bericky97 on Jan 18, 2018 2. Apical heart rate 80; radial beats per minute 68
