Answer to Question 1

T
The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends the following actions to help
prevent SIDS in infants: place healthy infants on their backs to sleep, use mattresses with a
firm sleeping surface, avoid exposing the infant to secondhand smoke, and offer a pacifier
for sleep. In addition, bed sharing is not recommended, and parents are advised to put the
infant in a safe bassinet or crib in the parent's room for sleeping.

Answer to Question 2

Feedback
A If all the products of conception have been passed (complete abortion), a D&C is
not used.

done safely until week 14 of gestation.
C If the pregnancy is still viable (threatened abortion), a D&C is not used.
D D&C is used to remove the products of conception from the uterus and can be
