Answer to Question 1

bariatric bed
A full or double-wide bariatric bed can accommodate a patient up to 1000 lb. However, when using a full or double-wide bariatric bed, you must assemble it in the patient's room and must not use it for transfers, because this bed is too large to fit through standard hospital doorways.

Answer to Question 2

B
When used as a nonrebreather, the face mask with a reservoir bag delivers 60 to 90 oxygen at 15 L/min. The simple face mask delivers oxygen concentrations from 40 to 60 when set at 5 to 8 L/min. It is not used at 15 L/min. A Venturi mask delivers oxygen concentrations from 24 to 60 when set at 4 to 12 L/min. It is not used at 15 L/min. An oxygen tent is usually for pediatric use and delivers up to 50 oxygen concentration at 10 to 15 L/min.
