Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
The Back to Sleep campaign of the American Academy of Pediatrics aims for all infants to sleep on their backs, every time. Since initiation of this campaign, there a has been a 50 reduction in SIDS deaths. The other factors are not as firmly related to SIDS as is sleeping supine.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
Discharge planning starts on admission to the NICU. Instructions are extensive and parents need time to absorb education and begin planning. Of course, changes in the baby's condition warrant changes in plans, but by starting early, the nurse can ensure the best possible outcome for the family.
