Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who has an NG tube. The nurse tests the pH of the secretions to determine if the tube is correctly placed. Which of the following readings should the nurse expect?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: pH 1-4. Stomach secretions have a low pH due to the presence of hydrochloric acid, typically ranging from 1 to 4. This acidic environment confirms that the NG tube is correctly placed in the stomach.

Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they represent pH ranges that are not consistent with stomach secretions. pH 5-7 could indicate the tube is in the small intestine, pH 8-10 could indicate the tube is in the duodenum, and pH 11-14 could indicate the tube is in the jejunum or beyond.
