The client has a documented advance health care directive that indicates that no resuscitative measures should be employed in the event of a respiratory or cardiac arrest.
 
  The client begins to exhibit severe dyspnea and air hunger and says, Please do something, I can't breathe. What action should be taken by the nurse?
  1. Offer the client comfort measures until death occurs.
  2. Call the client's physician for direction.
  3. Initiate resuscitative measures.
  4. Check the medical record to ascertain the terms of the directive.
