Answer to Question 1

D

Feedback
A Incorrect. In the period immediately after a baby has had surgery for cleft lip repair, the nurse will not place the baby in a prone position lying flat. The infant should only be placed on the back or side to protect the operative site.
B Incorrect. In the period immediately after a baby has had surgery for cleft lip repair, the nurse will not remove the elbow restraints. These restraints are used to prevent the infant from touching or pulling the site. They should be removed periodically to exercise the arms.
C Incorrect. In the period immediately after a baby has had surgery for cleft lip repair, the nurse will not hold the pain medication. Adequate pain medication needs to be administered to minimize crying and stress on the suture line.
D Correct. In the period immediately after a baby has had surgery for cleft lip repair, the nurse will apply a Logan bow or a butterfly adhesive to prevent tension on the suture line.

Answer to Question 2

C

Feedback
A Incorrect. When children learn new developmental skills, the new skills do not take longer to learn than earlier skills.
B Incorrect. When children learn new developmental skills, the new skills do not cause the child anxiety.
C Correct. When children learn new developmental skills, the new skills predominate over older skills. This occurs because of the strong drive to practice and perfect new abilities, especially early in life, when the child is not capable of coping well with several new skills simultaneously.
D Incorrect. When children learn new developmental skills, the new skills are not a minor focus compared to old skills.

Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
