A tray for pelvic examination usually includes?

  1. Stethoscope, Blood Pressure Cuff, Thermometer

  2. Lubricant, Vaginal Speculum, Gloves

  3. Needles, Syringes, Bandages

  4. Tourniquet, Alcohol wipes, Gauze

The correct answer is: Lubricant, Vaginal Speculum, Gloves

A tray for pelvic examination typically includes items that are necessary for the examination and collection of samples from the vaginal area. These items may include a lubricant to ease discomfort and allow for easier sample collection, a vaginal speculum to keep the vaginal walls open for better visibility, and gloves for hygienic purposes. Option A is incorrect because these items would not typically be needed for a pelvic examination. Option C is incorrect because needles, syringes, and bandages are typically used for blood draws or injections, which do not occur during a pelvic examination. Option D is incorrect because a tourniquet and alcohol wipes are typically not needed for a pelvic examination, and gauze may only be used if there is a need for minor wound care during the examination.
