- A. Avoid cleaning the skin
- B. Bathe the infant with sterile water
- C. Cleanse the skin with a gentle alkaline-based soap and water
- D. Thoroughly rinse the skin with plain water after bathing
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct intervention to maintain the skin integrity of a preterm infant born at 30 weeks is to bathe the infant with sterile water. Bathing with sterile water or a neutral pH solution is recommended to protect the delicate skin of preterm infants, which is more permeable and prone to damage. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect as avoiding cleaning the skin may lead to hygiene issues, cleansing with alkaline-based soap can be harsh on the delicate skin, and thoroughly rinsing with plain water after bathing may not be as gentle and protective for preterm infants.
