Answer to Question 1

Answer:2
Rationale: Treatment of scabies involves application of a scabicide,such as 5 percent permethrin lotion,over the entire body from the chin down. The scabicide is also applied to the scalp and forehead of younger children,avoiding the rest of the face.

Answer to Question 2

Answer:3,1,2,4
Rationale: The first step in burn care is to ensure that the child has an airway,is breathing,and has a pulse.Due to the severity of the burn,establishing IV access and starting resuscitation fluids would be next;then the area of pain should be addressed,followed by the insertion of a Foley catheter.
