Correct Answer is B

Explanation

Choice A rationale

Malignant tumors do spread into or invade nearby tissues. This invasive nature allows cancer cells to spread to other parts of the body through the blood or lymph systems.

Choice B rationale

Benign tumors do not spread into or invade nearby tissues. They may grow larger but do not spread to other parts of the body. Benign tumors can be serious if they press on vital structures such as blood vessels or nerves.

Choice C rationale

Benign tumors do not spread and invade nearby tissues. This statement is incorrect and contradicts the true nature of benign tumors.

Choice D rationale

There is a difference between benign and malignant tumors. Malignant tumors are cancerous and invade nearby tissues, whereas benign tumors do not.

A. Aspirate carefully after inserting the needle into the client's skin. B. Expel the air bubble from the prefilled syringe before injection. C. Administer the injection in the client's thigh. D. Insert the needle completely into the client's tissue.

Correct Answer is D

Explanation

Choice A rationale

Aspiration is not recommended for subcutaneous injections because it can increase tissue damage and pain. Enoxaparin should be administered without aspiration.

Choice B rationale

Prefilled syringes of enoxaparin contain an air bubble to ensure the entire dose is administered. Expelling the air bubble before injection is not recommended.

Choice C rationale

Enoxaparin should be administered in the abdomen, at least 2 inches away from the umbilicus, to ensure proper absorption and effectiveness.

Choice D rationale

Enoxaparin should be administered subcutaneously, and the needle should be inserted completely to ensure the medication is delivered into the subcutaneous tissue.
