B.) pain level rating using 0 to 10 scale
C.) hydration status
D.) appearance of the IV insertion site - ANS✔✔---presence of gag reflex

Therefore, the priority assessment by the nurse is to determine the return of the
gag reflex.

lung to collapse and forcing the trachea to deviate to the unaffected side.
