Answer to Question 1

B
Feedback:
Any part of the gown below waist level and above nipple level is also considered contaminated. The nurse should always keep the sterile gloved hands in the area between the nipples and the waist. Any part below waist level or above nipple level is considered contaminated. Therefore, the nurse should not place gloved hands between the neck and the nipples, between the waist and the hips, or between the hips and the knees.

Answer to Question 2

A
Feedback:
Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is a complication that can occur when high concentrations of oxygen are given during the course of treatment for respiratory distress syndrome (RDS). ROP is caused by separation and fibrosis of the retinal blood vessels and can often result in blindness.
