Question 1 of 5
The nurse is caring for an infant following a cheiloplasty. Which supply item should the nurse have at the bedside following this procedure?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Cheiloplasty is a surgical repair of a cleft lip, which can affect the infant’s ability to feed and maintain a clear airway. Suction equipment is essential at the bedside to clear secretions or blood from the oral cavity, preventing airway obstruction and ensuring airway patency. A nasogastric tube is not typically required unless feeding difficulties are severe. Sterile water is not a priority for immediate postoperative care, and a tracheostomy is not indicated for this procedure.
