A client who is to receive general anesthesia has a serum potassium level of 5.8 meq/l (5.8 mmol/l). what should be the nurse's first response?
the nurse should notify the anesthesiologist because a serum potassium level of 5.8 mEq/L places the client at risk for dysrhythmias when under general anesthesia.
