Answer to Question 1

Ans:
C

Feedback:

Success of chemotherapy for prophylaxis and treatment of tuberculosis depends on strict adherence to a lengthy drug regimen that includes isoniazid (INH), rifampin, ethambutol, pyrazinamide, and streptomycin (or some combination of these).

Answer to Question 2

Ans:
B

Feedback:

The type II alveolar cells that produce surfactant do not begin to mature until 26th to 27th week of gestation; consequently, many premature infants have difficulty in producing sufficient amounts of surfactant. This can lead to alveolar collapse and severe respiratory distress. The only answer (B) to facilitate respiratory is mechanical ventilation. IV fluids and nutrition are important but not a priority of airway/breathing problems. There is no indication that the infant has increased ICP and would need an intraventricular catheter.
