Answer to Question 1

C
Feedback:
A transabdominal tube provides access to various parts of the GI tract. A transabdominal gastrostomy tube is inserted with the use of an endoscope. Myringotomy tubes are small tubes that are surgically placed into a child's eardrum to help drain the fluid out of the middle ear in order to reduce the risk of ear infections. A nasointestinal tube is inserted through the nose for distal placement below the stomach. Colon tubes are inserted in the rectum for an enema.

Answer to Question 2

D
Feedback:
A bolus feeding is the instillation of liquid nourishment four to six times a day in less than 30 minutes, usually 250 to 400 ml of formula per administration. An intermittent feeding is administered over 30 to 60 minutes. Cyclic feeding (over a period of 8 to 12 hours) is followed by a 16- to 12-hour pause. Continuous feeding is administered at a rate of 1.5 ml/minute.
