Feedback:
The nurse should check the client's core temperature frequently to ensure that the client's core temperature does not fall too low. The treatment should be stopped before the temperature reaches the prescribed level because the temperature continues to drop even after the treatment is discontinued. Blood pressure need not be monitored continuously. The nurse should arrange for a bath blanket to be ready to use in case the client experiences chilling.
