Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Because the infant has been diagnosed with colic, the parent should respond to the infant immediately or any type of interventions to relieve colic may not be effective. Also, the infant may develop a mistrust of the world if his or her needs are not met. The parent should swaddle the baby tightly with a soft blanket, massage the baby's abdomen, and place the infant in an upright seat after a feeding to help relieve colic.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
The correct dose of epinephrine to use in the emergency management of an anaphylactic reaction is 0.001 mg/kg up to a maximum of 0.3 mg, giving a range of 0.011 to 0.3 mg using a weight of 11 kg (24 lb).
