Answer to Question 1

a

Answer to Question 2

With a patient who is allergic to latex, you should immediately avoid having the patient come into contact with latex. You would use a nonlatex tourniquet and nonlatex gloves. The phlebotomist should also wash his or her hands before handling any of the nonlatex items to avoid transferring latex from the previous patient.
