Question 1 of 5

A nurse is teaching an adult client how to administer ear drops. Which of the following statements by the client indicates understanding of the proper technique?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: "I will gently apply pressure with my finger to the tragus of my ear after putting in the drops." This statement indicates understanding of the proper technique because applying pressure to the tragus helps the ear drops to reach the ear canal. The tragus is a small cartilaginous projection in front of the ear canal that, when pressed, helps to facilitate the passage of the drops into the ear. This action ensures proper distribution of the medication for effective treatment.

Other choices are incorrect:
A: Pulling the ear down and back is a technique used for administering ear drops in children, not adults.
C: Inserting the nozzle snug into the ear can cause injury to the ear canal and eardrum.
D: Placing a cotton ball all the way into the ear canal can prevent the drops from reaching the ear canal and may cause blockage.
