Answer to Question 1

4
Explanation:
1. Using a car seat is the law. Special car seats to accommodate the casts are available and should be utilized.
2. Parents should be watching for swelling while the casts are on.
3. Keeping the casts dry is important to prevent complications.
4. Serial casting is the treatment of choice for congenital clubfoot. The cast is changed every 1 to 2 weeks until the corrected foot position is achieved.

Answer to Question 2

4
Explanation:
1. Although honey can contain botulism spores that cannot be detoxified by the infant younger than 1 year old, it does not cause an allergic reaction.
2. Carrots, beets, and spinach contain nitrates and should not be given before 4 months of age.
3. The addition of pork is delayed until the infant is 8 to 10 months old because meats are hard to digest.
4. Cow's milk, eggs, and peanuts are foods that have been associated with food allergies.
