Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Clippers or razors remove the hair near or in the surgical site that may interfere with exposure, closure, or dressing. Electric clippers are the preferred method because there is a less chance of causing a nick to the skin.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
A pillow is one example of a positioning aid placed in between the patient's legs lengthwise to prevent pressure.
