If resistance to inflation is noted, or if the patient complains of pain, the balloon may not be entirely within the bladder. Stop inflation, aspirate any fluid injected into the balloon, and advance the catheter a little farther before attempting again to inflate.
Answer to Question 2

Limit the amount of formula hung at one time to an amount that can be infused in a 4- to 6-hour period (less time in warmer weather to minimize risk for microorganism contamination). Do not add formula to a hanging bag. Using refrigeration and limiting hang time reduce microorganisms. Changing administration sets every 24 hours reduces microorganism growth.
