Answer to Question 1

pain, pallor, pulselessness, paresthesia, paralysis (in any order)
The 5 Ps of vascular impairment are assessment for pain, pallor (paleness), absence of pulse, (pulselessness), paresthesia (absence of feeling), and paralysis (inability to move the extremity).

Answer to Question 2

A
DTaP, IPV, HepB, Hib, PCV, and rotavirus are the appropriate sequence of immunizations for a healthy 2-month-old infant. MMR is given at or after 12 months of age. Oral polio vaccine (OPV) is no longer administered in the U.S.
