How far should enema tubing be inserted?

1 to 2 inches
2 to 4 inches
3 to 5 inches
4 to 6 inches

The correct answer is: 1 to 2 inches

Enema tubing should be inserted 1 to 2 inches into the rectum. This depth allows for the effective administration of the enema solution while minimizing the risk of injuring or causing discomfort to the patient. Inserting the tubing too far could lead to complications, while not inserting it enough may result in the enema solution not reaching the intended area for treatment. Therefore, discretion and care should be exercised when inserting enema tubing to ensure patient safety and treatment effectiveness.
