As the RN is suctioning a client, the pulse oximetry reading drops to 83. What would be the next action taken by the RN?
 
  1. Allow the client to take some extra deep breaths.
  2. Continue to suction but only intermittently.
  3. Keep the catheter in place and wait a few minutes.
  4. Stop suctioning and give supplemental oxygen.
