During REM sleep, the client's temperature, pulse, blood pressure, and respirations increase. The client may experience small muscle twitching, such as facial muscles twitching, and irregular pulse rate and respirations. During non-eye movement sleep, the client will exhibit a decrease in body temperature, pulse, blood pressure, and respirations.

Assess the client's vital signs and pulse oximetry.
Explanation:
Considering the client's sleep pattern, including periods of apnea; obesity; and cardiovascular disease, the client is likely experiencing sleep apnea. Sleep apnea may result in periods of life-threatening apnea, hypoxia, and bradycardia. As such, the nurse should awaken the client, obtain and record vital signs, and notify the health care provider of the sleep pattern and vital sign results. Calling a code blue is inappropriate, as the client is experiencing periods of apnea that are consistent with a sleep disorder and there is no indication that the client does not have a pulse. Asking a peer to observe the sleep pattern is inappropriate, as the nurse should assess the client's well-being. Reviewing the medical record is inappropriate, as attention should be on the client's well-being.
