Answer to Question 1

A
The nurse should not abandon the patient, but ask for another assignment.

Answer to Question 2

B
Treatment of talipes consists of manipulation and the application of a series of short leg casts. The foot is gently manipulated into a more normal position and then casted to maintain the correction. Casts are changed weekly to allow for further manipulation and to accommodate the rapidly growing infant.
