Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Regulate oxygen via nasal cannula at a flow rate of no more than 6 L/min. This is the correct action because excessive oxygen flow can lead to oxygen toxicity and respiratory depression in patients. Nasal cannulas are commonly used for oxygen therapy and a flow rate of more than 6 L/min can cause discomfort and dryness of the nasal passages. It is important to adhere to evidence-based practice guidelines to ensure patient safety and well-being.


Choice A is incorrect because aligning the flow rate with the top of the ball inside the flow meter is not a reliable method for regulating oxygen flow.
Choice C is incorrect as the reservoir bag of a partial rebreathing mask should remain inflated to ensure an adequate oxygen supply.
Choice D is incorrect as petroleum jelly should not be used in oxygen therapy due to the risk of flammability.
