Answer to Question 1

C
The symptoms are consistent with those typically seen in victims of bullying.

Answer to Question 2

4
Feedback
1. JVD is not a symptom of CHF in infants.
2. Increased, not decreased, blood pressure is an indicator of CHF.
3. Although periorbital edema occurs in infants with prolonged CHF, it is not a likely symptom of CHF.
4. This is the most common symptom due to sympathetic stimulation.
