Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Because the patient is not intubated, an aerosol mask needs to be used with a nebulizer that has a heating device. Corrugated tubing with a thermometer and a drain bag in-line to collect the rain out are also needed. Oxygen tubing is not used with large-volume nebulizers.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
The most common problems with bland aerosol delivery systems involve infection control, envi-ronmental safety, inadequate mist production, overhydration, bronchospasm, and noise.
