A 26-year-old woman is scheduled for a first-trimester abortion in the morning. A laminaria tent is inserted as part of the vacuum aspiration procedure. The nurse explains to the woman that laminaria is used to:

  2. prevent postabortion infection.
  3. reduce pain by numbing the cervix.
  4. dilate the cervix for easier insertion of the aspirator.
