Question 1 of 5
A nurse is preparing to administer medications to a client through an enteral feeding tube. Which of the following interventions is appropriate?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D: Flush the tube with 30 ml of water between each medication. Flushing the tube with water between medications helps prevent clogging and ensures proper medication administration. It also helps prevent interactions between different medications. Adding medications to the feeding bag (choice
A) may cause drug interactions or alter the efficacy of the medications. Checking for gastric residual 15 min after administering medications (choice
B) is not necessary for enteral tube medication administration. Keeping the client's head elevated 15° (choice
C) is important during feeding, but not specifically for medication administration.
