A. Check gastric residual volume every 4 hr.B. Flush the tube with water every 12 hr.C. Position the client supine during feeding.D. Change the feeding bag every 48 hr.

Rationale: Checking residual volume every 4 hours assesses tolerance, preventing aspiration. Flushing is more frequent, supine positioning risks aspiration, and bags change every 24 hours.

Question 2 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who is postoperative following a femoral-popliteal bypass. Which of the following actions should the nurse take?

A. Check the client's pedal pulses every 2 hr.B. Instruct the client to keep the affected leg in a dependent position.C. Apply a warm compress to the surgical site.D. Encourage the client to cross their legs when seated.
