Answer:1
Rationale: The mouth care should be with a nonalcohol base.Normal saline can keep the child's lips and mouth moist.Listerine and Scope are commercial mouth rinses that can have an alcohol base and cause drying of the membranes. Viscous lidocaine causes numbing and could depress the gag reflex in a younger child.
