16. The nurse caring for a patient who is post-op day 2 after a total thyroidectomy. While taking Bam vital signs, the CNA tells the nurse “I’m having a hard time taking his blood pressure because he keeps bending his hand and wrist when I tighten up the cuff.” The most appropriate response by the nurse is; **I’ll bring him something to calm his nerves.” “Try using the other arm.” “Let me take a look at his morning labs.” “Ask him if he’s having a headache.”
