A nurse is providing care to a group of patients in an adult medical-surgical unit. Which patient should the nurse identify as having the highest risk for aspiration?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Enteral feedings via NG tube increase aspiration risk due to impaired swallowing and potential tube misplacement. Colostomies and ileostomies affect lower digestive tracts, and chest tubes address pleural issues, not aspiration.
