Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
The Huber needle is a special noncoring 90-degree needle used to penetrate the skin and septum of the implanted device. The Jamshidi needle is used for biopsy purposes such as bone marrow. The Gigli saw is a wire with serrations used to cut through cranial bone. Crutchfield tongs are used to stabilize the cervical spine by traction in cases of fracture.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Erythema, warmth, and tenderness along the course of the vein and swelling are signs of phlebitis. Air embolism occurs as a result of an air bubble entering the vascular system, and shortness of breath, chest pain, and hypotension are indicative of this complication. Extravasation is the leakage of an irritant and is accompanied by redness, warmth or coolness, swelling, and a dull ache to severe pain at the venipuncture site. Pulmonary edema is caused by fluid infusing too rapidly; dyspnea, cough, anxiety, rales, and possible cardiac dysrhythmias are indicative of pulmonary edema.
