An infant with a tracheoesophageal fistula
Question 1 of 5
The nurse places an infant with a tracheoesophageal fistula under a radiant warmer with the infant's head elevated at a 45-degree angle. Which statement by the mother indicates an understanding of the most important reason for this position?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: This position prevents stomach juice from going into the lungs. Placing the infant with tracheoesophageal fistula under a radiant warmer with head elevated at a 45-degree angle helps prevent aspiration of stomach contents into the lungs. This position utilizes gravity to keep stomach contents from regurgitating into the trachea. Options B, C, and D do not address the specific concern of preventing aspiration in infants with tracheoesophageal fistula. Option B focuses on digestion, option C on stomach pressure, and option D on lung expansion, but these are not the primary reasons for positioning the infant in this manner.
