Quizplus · Accepted Answer

I, II, III, and IV are correct. Decompression of the bowel can relieve pressure and may help in managing necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC). Replacement of blood products may be necessary due to blood loss or anemia. IV antibiotics are used to treat or prevent infection, which is a critical aspect of managing NEC. Total parenteral nutrition (TPN) provides necessary nutrients while bypassing the gut to allow it to heal. IV prostaglandin inhibitors are not typically used in the management of NEC, making options involving V incorrect.
