When irrigating a patient's wound with a syringe, a nurse directs the flow of solution from the superior area to the inferior area of the wound. The rationale for this action is to
1. Slow the irrigation of the wound, thus eliminating patient discomfort.

4. Use gravity in increasing the force of the irrigation.
