Answer to Question 1

D
Feedback:
The client should restrain the baby in a car seat when driving. Infants are especially vulnerable to injuries resulting from falling off changing tables or being unrestrained in automobiles. Locking the cabinets and giving warm bottles of formula to the baby are secondary teachings.

Answer to Question 2

B
A Mantoux tuberculin skin test is used to screen for TB; a positive reaction indicates that the person has been infected with and has developed antibodies against the tubercle bacillus, but a negative reaction does not exclude the possibility of exposure to TB, particularly in those who are immunocompromised.
