Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who is at high risk for aspiration. Which of the following is an appropriate nursing intervention?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Instruct the client to tuck her chin when swallowing. This intervention helps prevent aspiration by closing off the airway during swallowing, reducing the risk of food or liquids entering the lungs. Tucking the chin also helps direct the food or liquid down the esophagus. Giving thin liquids (choice
A) can increase the risk of aspiration. Using a straw (choice
C) may also increase the risk by bypassing the natural protective mechanisms. Encouraging the client to lie down after meals (choice
D) can lead to aspiration due to decreased muscle tone and gravity assisting in food or liquid entering the airway.
