Answer to Question 1

B
B. Elastic stockings are indicated for all clients with clotting disorders, fever, dehydration, pregnancy and/or first 6 weeks postpartum if the woman was confined to bed, or oral contraceptive use (especially if client smokes).
A. Elastic stockings are not necessarily indicated for a client with very large thighs.
C. Elastic stockings are not necessarily indicated for a client with a skin graft to the extremity.
D. Elastic stockings are not necessarily indicated for a client with a history of vertigo.

Answer to Question 2

Yankauer or tonsillar tip
A Yankauer, or tonsillar tip, suction device is used for oropharyngeal suctioning. This catheter is used instead of a standard suction catheter when oral secretions are extremely copious and thick, because it can handle large volumes of secretions better than a standard suction catheter can. The Yankauer suction catheter is angled to facilitate removal of secretions through a patient's mouth.
