Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback:
Supplemental oxygenation may be necessary before, and is always performed after, suctioning a child with a tracheostomy tube. Providing tracheostomy care, administering drugs with a nebulizer, and suctioning with a bulb syringe do not require supplemental oxygen.

Answer to Question 2

C
Feedback:
A woman with a small frame and thin bones is at a higher risk for osteoporosis. Caucasian or Asian women, not African American women, are at higher risk for the condition. A woman who plays tennis twice a week is active and thus would be at low risk for osteoporosis. Women who ingest excessive amounts of caffeine are at increased risk.
