HU The Laboratory Value of Hemoglobin Case Study

 

I’m working on a nursing question and need an explanation to help me learn.

A 34-year-old cyclist is brought to the emergency department after being involved in a mountain bike crash that caused the client to be slammed against a tree. Initial laboratory results show:

Hemoglobin

7.9 g/dL

White blood count

1800/L

Platelet count

100,000/L

Potassium

5.5 mmol/L

For each laboratory result, use an X to indicate what action should be taken from the provided options. Only one action can be made for each result. Actions can be used only once.
