Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Treatment of talipes consists of manipulation and the application of a series of short leg casts. The foot is gently manipulated into a more normal position and then placed in a cast to maintain the correction. Casts are changed weekly to allow for further manipulation and to accommodate the rapidly growing infant.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: D
A complete physical is recommended annually after 75.
