Question 1 of 5
A nurse is about to administer a bolus enteral feeding to a client who is on bedrest. How does the nurse position the client during the feeding?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: With the head of the bed elevated 30-45 degrees. This position helps prevent aspiration during enteral feeding by promoting proper digestion and reducing the risk of reflux. Elevating the head of the bed facilitates the flow of the feeding formula and minimizes the chances of regurgitation. Placing the client on the left or right side with knees bent or with a pillow behind the back does not directly address the risk of aspiration or promote proper digestion. Elevating the head of the bed to 15 degrees is not high enough to effectively prevent aspiration.
