Answer to Question 1

A
The edges of the leg openings can be covered with plastic wrap or tape. The diaper should be changed more frequently to keep the cast clean. The parents should be allowed to hold their baby. The baby and parents need this interaction. The parent should wait until the cast is dry. The legs should be lifted simultaneously, but never by the cross bars of the cast.

Answer to Question 2

D

Feedback
A Incorrect. The ESSR method does not involve enter, swish, swallow, and recover.
B Incorrect. The ESSR method does not involve engage, start, swallow, and restart.
C Incorrect. The ESSR method does not involve enter, stimulate, swallow, and retry.
D Correct. The ESSR method involves enlarge, stimulate, swallow, and rest. This method uses standard nipples and bottles and is inexpensive and convenient. It includes enlarging the nipple hole by making a cross-cut so the infant will receive formula in the back of the throat for swallowing, thus bypassing the sucking problem. The next step refers to stimulating the sucking reflex by rubbing the nipple on the lower lip. The infant swallows the formula normally. The last step is a rest.
