Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The nurse visualizes the black line of the catheter after withdrawing the suction catheter from the ET because the black line indicates that the catheter is completely removed from the airway.The nurse inserts the catheter from suctioning during patient inhalation to avoid respiratory cycle interference for suctioning.The catheter is inserted until resistance is met to avoid suctioning in the main left or right bronchi.The closed-system suctioning system allows the nurse to use the same catheter for repeated patient suctioning by using sterile technique.
