Answer to Question 1

25

Answer to Question 2

2
Rationale:
1. A flat-lying position can exacerbate the discomfort. Elevating the head slightly is recommend-ed.
2. An infant with a bulging tympanic membrane because of acute otitis media will have pain. Parents are taught to administer acetaminophen (Tylenol) to relieve the discomfort associated with acute otitis media.
3. Decongestants are not recommended for treatment of acute otitis media.
4. Placing infants to sleep with a pacifier can increase the incidence of otitis media.

This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition.
