Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Infants with TTN usually respond readily to a low FiO2 by infant oxygen hood or nasal cannula.

ANS: C
The chest radiographic findings, which may initially be indistinguishable from those of pneumo-nia, are hyperinflation, which is secondary to air trapping and perihilar streaking.
