A client is receiving total parenteral nutrition (TPN). The nurse notices that the bag of TPN solution has been infusing for 24 hours but has 300 mL of solution left. The nurse should:
1. Continue the infusion until the remaining 300 mL is infused.
2. Change the filter on the tubing and continue with the infusion.
3. Notify the physician and obtain prescriptions to alter the flow rate of the solution.
4. Discontinue the current solution, change the tubing, and hang a new bag of TPN solution.
