D. fluids and medications that may be irritating to peripheral veins can be given through a central venous access device (CVAD). CVADs are beneficial because they allow for the administration of vesicants, irritant solutions, or large volumes of fluid that could damage smaller, peripheral veins. They also provide reliable venous access for patients who are critically ill, have poor venous access, or require long-term medication treatment, such as for pain, infection, cancer, or to supply nutrition.
A. While central lines do have a risk of sepsis, it is not necessarily lower than peripheral sites
B. Patency confirmation methods are not exclusive to CVADs and are also applicable to peripheral IV catheters.
C. Both placement and maintenance require strict aseptic techniques to minimize the risk of infection.

D. The sigmoid colon is the last part of the large intestine before the rectum. It functions to store fecal material and absorb water and electrolytes. Fecal material passing through the sigmoid colon tends to become more solid as water is absorbed, resulting in a more formed stool compared to other parts of the colon.
A. The transverse colon is located in the upper abdomen and is responsible for further absorption of water and electrolytes from the stool. Fecal material passing through the transverse colon tends to become more solid as water is absorbed, but it may not be as solid as stool from the descending colon or sigmoid colon.
B. The ascending colon is where stool is in a more liquid form as it moves up from the cecum. It undergoes further absorption of water and electrolytes as it travels through the colon, but it typically does not produce solid fecal output.
C. The ileum is the final portion of the small intestine and connects to the large intestine (colon). Stool passing through the ileum is still in a relatively liquid state as it contains undigested food particles, bile salts, and digestive enzymes. The primary function of the ileum is absorption of nutrients rather than water reabsorption, so fecal output from an ileostomy is usually more liquid.
