Answer to Question 1

ANS: B

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Cardiac arrhythmias can occur during aggressive suctioning. Bradycardia may occur when the catheter stimulates vagal receptors in the upper airways. The procedure should be stopped and the ventilator should be used to hyperoxygenate the patient.
