You are taking care of an infant who was admitted with dehydration. His weight is 6kg. You have been watching his I & O's. What would you expect the infant's urinary output to be in order to maintain adequate hydration?
 
  1. 0.52 ml/kg/hr
   2. 0.52.5 ml/kg/hr
   3. 13 ml/kg/hr
   4. As long as he is having wet diapers it doesn't matter

A part of injury prevention is making and keeping infant appointments. The required checkups and vaccinations are at:
 
  1. 3 months, 6 months, 9 months
   2. 2 months, 4 months, 6 months and 1 year
   3. 2 months, 4 months, 6 month, 9 months and 1 year
   4. 2 months, 4 months, 9 months and 1 year
