Female risk factors for infertility include age older than 27 years, smoking and alcohol consumption, history of chronic illness such as diabetes, and overweight or underweight, which can disrupt hormonal function.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
After gathering the necessary equipment, the nurse would position the infant supine with a blanket or towel roll to extend the neck. Then the nurse would open all the packaging and cut the new tracheostomy ties to the appropriate length. This would be followed by cleaning the site with the appropriate solution and then rinsing it. After placing the precut sterile gauze under the tracheostomy tube, the nurse would cut the ties and remove them from the tube while an assistant holds the tube in place.
