Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
NG tube insertion requires a clean, not sterile, technique. Use strict aseptic technique when inserting an intravenous (IV) or Foley catheter and when performing suctioning of the lower airway.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Oral care should be performed every 4 hours to prevent the colonization of bacteria. Less often than every 4 hours is not effective.
