Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

C
Never insert an oral airway in a conscious patient or a patient with recent oral trauma, oral surgery, or loose teeth. Use oral airways only in unconscious patients. Oral airways may stimulate vomiting or laryngospasm if inserted in the semiconscious or conscious patient.
