Answer to Question 1

PCA pumps are used to for IV pain control administration by the patient.

Answer to Question 2

Normal saline is hung on Y tubing and to establish a patent line. The refrigerated blood is added after the line is established. If there is an untoward reaction during the transfusion, the blood is discontinued and the saline infused immediately to maintain the IV line and to prevent further reaction until additional measures are determined.
