thanks! i understand the rationals!! please bring more! I am addicted to questions right now.

what is the proper way to clear the airway of a term newborn with clear amniotic fluid using bulb suctioning

1- suction the nose first with the bulb compressed before insertion

2- suction the pharynx first with bulb compressed before insertion

3- suction the nose first with with bulb compression after insertion

4- suction the nose first followed by the mouth

A pt IV line is infiltrated, which action should the nurse take

1- apply compresses to relieve edema

2- DC the infusion and restart the IV on the other extremities

3- apply pressure on the site to relieve pain

4- apply moist heat to the IV site

I would say this. Not sure but going with my gut.

what is the proper way to clear the airway of a term newborn with clear amniotic fluid using bulb suctioning

Answer: 2- suction the pharynx first with bulb compressed before insertion

Only because you never suction the nose and then the mouth and you dont want the baby choking. I could be completely wrong on this.

However, I dont like that it says compress the bulb before insertion and babys are obligate breathers so maybe I should go with 3- suction the nose first with with bulb compression after insertion

This is where I always get stuck :D So maybe 3 is my final answer

A pt IV line is infiltrated, which action should the nurse take

2- DC the infusion and restart the IV on the other extremities

this is where i always get stuck :D so maybe 3 is my final answer
