A nurse is providing teaching to the parent of a 6-month-old infant who is teething and having difficulty sleeping. Which of the following instructions should the nurse include?

A. Allowing the infant to suck on a pacifier during tube feedings can lead to aspiration or choking and is not recommended.

B. Placing enough formula for 12 hours in the feeding container may lead to formula spoilage and contamination, as formula should be prepared fresh for each feeding.

C. Changing the tube feeding setup every 36 hours is not typically necessary unless there are signs of contamination or malfunction. The frequency of changing the setup should be based on institutional policies and manufacturer recommendations.

D. Flushing the tube with water before and after feedings helps ensure proper hydration and prevents tube blockage. A volume of 30 mL is commonly recommended for infants.

A. A client who has an ileal conduit and mucus in the pouch - While mucus in the ileal conduit pouch should be monitored, it is not an urgent priority compared to assessing for potential complications such as bleeding in another client.

B. A client who has an arteriovenous fistula that vibrates when palpated - A vibrating arteriovenous fistula indicates normal functioning and does not require immediate assessment.

C. A client who had a transurethral resection of the prostate with red-tinged urine in the bag - Red-tinged urine may indicate bleeding, a potential complication after a transurethral resection of the prostate, requiring prompt assessment and intervention.

D. A client who has chronic kidney disease with cloudy dialysate outflow - While cloudy dialysate outflow may indicate infection or other complications in a client with chronic kidney disease on peritoneal dialysis, it is not as urgent as assessing for bleeding in the client with red- tinged urine.
