A charge nurse is providing teaching to a newly licensed nurse on how to clean surfaces contaminated with blood. Which of the following agents should the nurse include in theteaching?

A. Using the injection port farthest from the IV catheter insertion site is not necessary for administering an IV bolus of medication and may not be practical depending on the setup of the IV tubing.

B. Occluding the IV tubing above the injection port prevents the bolus medication from flowing into the continuous IV infusion, ensuring that the medication is delivered directly to the patient.

C. Checking for blood return after medication administration is not relevant in this context, as albumin 5% is administered intravenously and does not require blood return.

D. Flushing the IV tubing with a heparinized solution is not necessary for administering an IV bolus of medication and may not be appropriate for all medications.

A. Portable suction may be needed for some infants but is not specifically indicated for tetralogy of Fallot.

B. A cervical collar is used for neck support in patients with suspected cervical spine injuries and is not indicated for tetralogy of Fallot.

C. A hemodialyzer is used for renal replacement therapy and is not indicated for tetralogy of Fallot.

D. A pulse oximeter is essential for monitoring oxygen saturation levels in infants with tetralogy of Fallot, as they may experience cyanosis and hypoxemia. Monitoring oxygen saturation helps guide interventions and management.
