Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who has an implanted venous access port. Which of the following should the nurse use to access the port?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: A noncoring needle. A noncoring needle is the appropriate choice for accessing an implanted venous access port because it is designed specifically for this purpose. The noncoring needle has a blunt tip that minimizes the risk of damaging the port's septum, ensuring proper access without causing any harm. Using an angiocatheter (
B) or a butterfly needle (
C) may be too large or sharp, leading to potential damage to the port. Similarly, a 25-gauge needle (
D) is too small and may not effectively access the port. It is crucial to use the correct equipment to maintain the integrity and functionality of the implanted venous access port.
