The pulse oximeter indicates a patient's blood oxygen level is 89. A nurse knows that it is important to
 
  1. Verify the oximeter is placed on a site that has adequate capillary refill.
  2. Call the laboratory and order arterial blood gases to get a more accurate oxygen level.
  3. Encourage the patient to get out of bed and ambulate more.
  4. Let the patient rest quietly to reduce the need for oxygen.
