Answer to Question 1

B
A pregnant client undergoing a fetal ultrasound should drink prior to testing to ensure a full bladder at the time of the test. This assists with the visualization of the fetus.

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback:
In a piggyback infusion, a parenteral drug is administered in tandem with a primary IV solution. Medication locks are not changed during piggyback infusion specifically, but in general to maintain patency. IV medication or fluid is given all at one time as quickly as possible in a bolus administration, not in piggyback infusion. It is not the primary IV solution but the secondary infusions that are administered by gravity in tandem with the currently infused primary solution.
