Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Failure to maintain an adequate seal between the mask and the patient's face can lead to the de-livery of low tidal volumes.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Preoxygenation of the patient with 100 oxygen for a minimum of 30 to 60 seconds before suc-tioning is required to avoid the hazards of hypoxemia.
