Answer to Question 1

D
All infants require burping whether breastfeeding or bottle feeding is used. Burping is needed to expel the air swallowed when the infant sucks. Burping should be done halfway through the bottle or when changing breasts.

Answer to Question 2

A
The Aldrete score or post-anesthetic recovery score is a tool PACU nurses use to objectively assess the physical status of clients recovering from anesthesia; to be discharged from the PACU, the client must have an Aldrete score of 8 to 10 . Discharge from the PACU is determined by the postanesthesia nurse; if the client's Aldrete score is less than 7, an order for discharge must be written by the client's surgeon or anesthesia provider.
