Question 1 of 5

The nurse prepares to administer an enteral feeding to a client through a nasogastric tube (NGT). Which is the priority intervention for the nurse to complete before administering the feeding?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The nurse avoids injecting any substance into a client's NGT before verifying tube placement because NGTs can migrate out of the stomach. If the NGT is not in the correct location, subsequent injections or feedings through the tube can lead to serious complications such as aspiration. None of the remaining options are priorities before administering an enteral feeding.
