Answer to Question 1

D
Acetic ear drops are not indicated for AOM and should never be administered prophylactically. This statement indicates a need for further teaching.
The risk of AOM can be reduced by avoiding child care centers when respiratory infections are prevalent, by ensuring that the baby is not exposed to tobacco smoke, and by not feeding the ba-by in a supine position. No further teaching is needed with these statements.

Answer to Question 2
