Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Nonwoven disposable drapes are lightweight yet strong enough to resist tears; they are also moisture repellant, antistatic, made from synthetic fibers, flame retardant, and come prepackaged and sterilized by the manufacturer.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
All body piercing jewelry should be removed before surgery because they can cause infection, positioning and pressure injuries, become dislodged or lost, cause burns from electricity currents, and interfere with catheterization.
