Answer:

pulse

Explanation:

The carotid arteries extend from the aorta to the brain and supply blood to that organ. If you gently press both sides of your trachea in the neck, you may feel carotid artery pulsations. For this reason, we can say that when you find a carotid artery in a person, you try to check for a pulse.

Like any artery in the body, carotids can become diseased if their interior is partially or completely occluded. The material that is deposited inside the arteries is called atheroma and is essentially a fat deposit. It forms a plaque that can eventually cause a narrowing of the carotid artery, which is called stenosis.

The nurse provides teaching to a client who will begin to receive tube feedings after a total laryngectomy. The nurse concludes
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

I will need tube feedings until healing of the incision is complete.

Explanation:

In this case, it is better to avoid food until the area is completely healed and this will stop any form of contamination or irritation. Because the structure was altered, the gag reflex is absent. The ability of the patient to belch does not impact the decision to resume feeding through the mouth. It is important to note that while such client can still tolerate feeding via the mouth, it is only withheld for a period to ensure that the surgical site is not irritated until it has completely healed.
