Answer:

the nurse should use Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) for both patients

Explanation:

Nurses use Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) in order to prevent the spread of pathogenic harmful microorganisms (e.g., bacteria, viruses, etc), thereby protecting people from infections. PPE includes gloves, respirators, medical masks, goggles or a face shield, and gowns that are effective to avoid the transmission of infectious and communicable diseases from blood samples, secretions, and excretions (body fluids). Re-using/sharing this equipment is not advised because the protective properties of the PPE cannot be assured after reuse/recycling and it may expose other individuals to potentially infected materials.

klasskru [66]

Answer:

support increased DNA synthesis

Explanation:

    Folic acid (folate) is a complex B vitamin. Along with vitamin B12, folic acid is required for the formation of normal red blood cells and for the synthesis of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid), the genetic material of cells. Folic acid is also necessary for the normal development of the fetal nervous system.

  Pregnant women or women of childbearing age should take folic acid supplements to reduce the risk of having a baby with a birth defect, especially neural tube defects. The folate serves to ensure a healthy pregnancy and good development of the baby. If a pregnant woman has folic acid deficiency, there is an increased risk of having a baby with a congenital spinal cord or brain defect (neural tube defect).
