Answer to Question 1

D
Feedback
A Cry and an increased heart rate are manifestations of neonatal pain. Typically,
infants will close their eyes tightly when in pain, not open them wide.
B Infants may cry in response to pain. Additionally, they may display a rigid
posture with the mouth open.
C A high-pitched, shrill cry is associated with genetic/neurologic anomalies. The
infant may cry, withdraw limbs, and become tachycardic with pain.
D These manifestations are indicative of pain in the neonate.

protecting the joints.
