Answer to Question 1

Answer: C

Ear pain is the most common symptom of otitis media that motivates the client to seek health care. Secondary symptoms associated with the disease include dizziness, impaired hearing, and nausea and vomiting.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: D

Infants and small children who are bottle-fed in a supine position have a greater probability of developing otitis media because the eustachian tube opens when the child sucks, and the horizontal angle provides easy access to the middle ear. Children are not prone to sinus infection at that age as the result of feeding position. While choking and aspiration can occur due to an improper position during bottle-feeding, these are not infectious health problems.
