Answer to Question 1

ANS: A, B, C, E
Swaddling, rocking, nonnutritive sucking, quiet environment, and cuddling are all effective, noninvasive pain remedies. Distraction is not a dependable method of pain reduction with infants.

ANS: C
Handwashing is the most reliable precaution available to prevent infection. The nurse washes his or her hands between handling different babies.
