Answer to Question 1

ANS: B, D, E
Increased heart rate and respiratory rate, facial grimaces, increased state of arousal, and crying and tightly closed eyes are indicators of possible neonatal pain.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
If the newborn continues to receive supplemental oxygen for a prolonged time, a thickening of the alveolar sacs can develop, with the occurrence of atelectasis and scarring, referred to as bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). This can result in long-term oxygen dependence.
