A patient has a blood pressure of 134/70 per blood pressure cuff and a blood pressure of 90/50 per arterial line. The nurse should:
1. Discontinue the arterial line immediately.
2. Check the level of the transducer and relevel and rezero the system.
3. Do nothing because this is a normal variation between the two methods of measurement.
4. Begin the infusion of a dopamine drip.
