A nurse is preparing a care plan for a patient who is about to receive a transfusion of packed red blood cells. What should be the maximum duration for the total infusion time?

Choice A rationale
The effectiveness of pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy in patients with chronic pancreatitis can be evaluated by observing the patient’s stool. Pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy (PERT) is used to improve digestion and absorption of nutrients in patients with pancreatic insufficiency, a common complication of chronic pancreatitis. One of the primary goals of PERT is to reduce steatorrhea, or fatty stools, which is a common symptom of pancreatic insufficiency. Therefore, observing changes in the patient’s stool, such as a reduction in fat content, can help evaluate the effectiveness of PERT567.
Choice B rationale
While saliva plays a role in the initial stages of digestion, it is not typically used to evaluate the effectiveness of pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy in patients with chronic pancreatitis. PERT is primarily aimed at improving the digestion and absorption of nutrients in the intestines, and changes in saliva are not indicative of the effectiveness of this therapy.
Choice C rationale
Nasal mucus is not typically used to evaluate the effectiveness of pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy in patients with chronic pancreatitis. PERT is primarily aimed at improving the digestion and absorption of nutrients in the intestines, and changes in nasal mucus are not indicative of the effectiveness of this therapy.
Choice D rationale
Urine is not typically used to evaluate the effectiveness of pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy in patients with chronic pancreatitis. PERT is primarily aimed at improving the digestion and absorption of nutrients in the intestines, and changes in urine are not indicative of the effectiveness of this therapy.

Choice A rationale

Peptic ulcer disease is not a common complication of difficulty swallowing after a stroke. It is typically caused by an infection with the bacterium Helicobacter pylori or long-term use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.
Choice B rationale
Dumping syndrome is not a common complication of difficulty swallowing after a stroke. It is a condition that can occur after surgery to remove all or part of your stomach or after surgery to bypass your stomach to help you lose weight.
Choice C rationale
Aspiration is a common problem for people with dysphagia, a condition that can occur after a stroke. It occurs when something you’ve swallowed enters the airway and lungs. Normally, aspiration causes a violent cough, but a stroke can reduce sensation. In this case, you may not know you’re aspirating (silent aspiration)5.
Choice D rationale
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is not a common complication of difficulty swallowing after a stroke. GERD is a chronic disease that occurs when stomach acid or bile flows into the food pipe and irritates the lining.
