In some clients, ingestion bypasses the mouth and delivers nutrients directly into the stomach or small intestine. An example of this would be the client with:
 
  1. a Salem Sump feeding tube.
  2. total parenteral nutrition (TPN) via central venous catheter.
  3. partial parenteral nutrition (PPN) via intravenous catheter.
  4. an ileostomy.

  1. Production of bile
  2. Storage of bile
  3. Secretion of insulin
  4. Secretion of somatostatin

Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 1
Rationale 1: A Salem Sump tube delivers food to the stomach, bypassing the mouth.
Rationale 2: TPN bypasses the entire alimentary canal.
Rationale 3: PPN bypasses the entire alimentary canal.
Rationale 4: A client with an ileostomy can eat by mouth without diversion.
Global Rationale: In some patients, ingestion bypasses the mouth and delivers nutrients directly into the stomach or small intestine via a feeding tube. TPN and PPN bypass the entire alimentary canal. A client with an ileostomy can eat by mouth without diversion.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 1
Rationale 1: The liver makes bile.
Rationale 2: Bile is stored in the gallbladder until needed for lipid digestion.
Rationale 3: Insulin is secreted by the beta cells of the pancreas.
Rationale 4: Somatostatin is not secreted by the liver.
Global Rationale: The liver makes bile, which is stored in the gallbladder until it is needed for lipid digestion. The liver is not involved in the secretion of somatostatin or insulin.
