The nurse is teaching a parent how to administer ear drops to a 2-year-old child with an ear infection. What instructions does the nurse give the parent? ‘Pull the child’s pinna up and backward to straighten the ear canal before administration of the drops.’ ‘Have the child lie down with the affected ear facing the ceiling while administering the drops and then wait for 5 minutes after the drops are in.’ ‘Keep the drops refrigerated until just before you administer and apply the drops onto a cotton ball then insert into the ear.’ ‘Administer the eardrops while holding the dropper 2 to 3 in (5 to 7.5 cm) above the ear canal.’
