Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
The lesions of atopic dermatitis are generalized in infants. They are most common on the cheeks, scalp, trunk, and extensor surfaces of the extremities. The abdomen and buttocks are not common sites of lesions. The back and flexor surfaces are not usually involved.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Change the diaper as soon as it becomes soiled. Gently wipe stool from the skin with water and mild soap. The skin should be thoroughly dried after washing. Applying oil does not create an effective barrier. Over washing the skin should be avoided, especially with perfumed soaps or commercial wipes, which may be irritating. Baby powder should not be used because of the danger of aspiration.

Heroin has a slight affinity for opiate receptors. Most of its actions are due to metabolism to active metabolites (6-acetylmorphine, morphine, and morphine-6-glucuronide).
