Answer to Question 1

D
Feedback:
For varicosities, the patient should be instructed to avoid constrictive knee-high hose. Fluid intake, avoiding prolonged positions, and dorsiflexion of the feet are ways to reduce the impact of varicosities and would not require additional teaching.

Answer to Question 2

T
At the recommendation of The Joint Commission on Infant Screening, most U.S. states
and Canada have implemented mandatory infant hearing screening programs. As part of
this program all newborns are screened before hospital discharge.
