Answer to Question 1

C
The suctioning, which is done during extraction of the suction tip, should not last more than 10 to 15 seconds as it deprives the patient of oxygen. Deep tracheal suction requires sterile tech-nique, and the patient should be positioned with the neck slightly extended to facilitate entrance into the trachea. Even though the procedure does not last for a long time, suctioning is uncom-fortable for the patient.

Answer to Question 2

B
Caffeine and other diuretics found in foods and drinks, as well as increased fluid intake of fluid, can increase the number of times a person must urinate.
