The nurse assisting with the care of a client receiving two units of blood is asked to record vital signs after the second unit is initiated. The nurse enters the room of the client, a 28-year-old female admitted following a salpingectomy secondary to an ectopic pregnancy, and finds her unconscious with weak pulse and shallow respirations. The nurse notes a rash over the exposed areas of her body. What is the nurse's priority action?
1. Attempt to revive the woman and measure vital signs.
2. Increase the rate of the blood infusion to raise her blood pressure quickly.
3. Stop the blood infusion.
4. Prepare another IV with fresh tubing, and connect to the IV site where the blood was infusing.
