The nurse providing instructions to the client using an incentive spirometer tells the client to sustain the inhaled breath for 3 seconds.
 
  When the client asks the nurse about the rationale for this action, the nurse explains that the primary benefit is to: 1. Dilate the major bronchi.
  2. Maintain inflation of the alveoli.
  3. Increase surfactant production.
  4. Enhance ciliary action in the tracheobronchial tree.
