Answer to Question 1

C
C. Step 14a Removal of gloves.
A. Step 14b Removal of mask.
B. Step 14c Removal of gown.
D. Step 14d Remove eyewear or goggles.

Answer to Question 2

D
PN increases blood glucose levels, which negatively affects patient outcomes. Frequent monitoring of glucose helps the caregiver to detect problems early. Expect testing frequency to decrease as the patient's condition and response to PN stabilize. Suggest taking PN solution out of the refrigerator for 30 to 60 minutes before scheduled infusion time. Chilled solution often causes discomfort; allowing the solution to warm enhances comfort during infusion. If a precipitate appears, if components of the mixture are separated, or if the color changes, explain that the solution needs to be discarded. Explain that PN is incompatible with most medications; do not add medications to the PN that are not ordered to be added.
