Answer to Question 1

Ans: D

Answer to Question 2

2

Rationale: In the preoperative period, the infant is positioned prone with the head of the bed el-evated to reduce the risk of aspiration. In an infant seat placed in the crib, supine with the head at a 90-degree angle, and supine with the head of the bed at a 30-degree angle are inap-propriate positions for preventing this risk.
