Answer to Question 1
B
Response:
Massaging the nasolacrimal duct can cause it to open and drain. Teaching the parents how to do this would be part of the plan of care. Nasolacrimal duct obstruction is not infectious.

D
Response:
All pregnant women should be screened for group B streptococcus infection at 35 to 37 weeks' gestation.
