A client with acute pancreatitis is admitted to the medical-surgical unit. She has poor skin turgor and tachycardia, and she complains of nausea and is having dry heaves. In addition, she rates her abdominal pain as 8 on a 0 to 10 scale. An IV line is running, and the client is taking nothing by mouth. After about 2 hours, the client is more comfortable. Signaling with her call light, she asks for something to drink. How do you respond?
