Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Treatment for this disorder is vigorous management of infection, not infusion of exogenous immunoglobulins. The other responses are inaccurate.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
All of the actions are important, but due to the infectious nature of this illness, ensuring proper disposal of soiled dressings is vital.
