Answer to Question 1

inflammatory

The ESR elevates in the presence of an inflammatory response.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B, C, D
Children with pyloric stenosis are given formula thickened with cereal; the infant is burped before and during feeding to get rid of any gas in the stomach; the infant is fed slowly and refed if vomiting occurs. The infant is positioned on the right side to allow the weight of the feeding to stay in the stomach against the pyloric valve.
