Answer to Question 1

2
Rationale:
1. Adducting the foot and listening for a click is not an assessment that is done.
2. Clubfoot is suspected when the foot will not turn to a midline position or align readily.
3. Extending the foot and observing for pain will not determine or rule out clubfoot.
4. Stimulating the sole of the foot will elicit the plantar grasp reflex, and is not an appropriate assessment for clubfoot.

Answer to Question 2

D
Intravenous drug use is a high-risk behavior for the transmission of HIV/AIDS. Blood has been screened since 1985 to prevent the spread of HIV/AIDS. Multiple sexual partners is a risk factor but not greater than IV drug use.
