Answer to Question 1

ANS: A
Infants and small children may not readily tolerate direct airway appliances such as masks, so en-closures such as mist tents and aerosol hoods are used to deliver bland aerosol therapy to these patients.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
CO2 build-up can be reduced by providing sufficiently high gas flow rates.
