Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, B, C, D
All options, except fear of death, are especially stressful for preschool children undergoing genitourinary surgery. Children in this age group do not have an understanding of the concept of death.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B, C, D, E
The infant is kept on his back or side with special attention to the skin around the exposed bladder, which is constantly bathed with urine. These infants are diapered loosely, if at all. Surgical closure is done as quickly as possible.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
