The client who is being mechanically ventilated has copious amounts of secretions ranging from thick and tenacious to frothy. In preparing to suction this client the nurse should:
 
  1. Hyperventilate the client using settings on the mechanical ventilator.
  2. Hyperventilate the client using a manual resuscitator.
  3. Avoid hyperventilation, but instill normal saline into the endotracheal tube.
  4. Avoid hyperventilation and increase the oxygen to 100 for several breaths.
