Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS) is characterized by physical, behavioral, and learning abnormalities resulting from maternal alcohol consumption during pregnancy. Statements A, B, and C correctly identify common features associated with FAS, such as heart murmurs, fussiness, and distinctive facial features. However, statement D suggests a misunderstanding. While cuddling and rocking can be soothing, they are not specific treatments for the agitation or other symptoms caused by FAS and might not always be effective in keeping the child calm. This indicates a need for further education on managing the symptoms of FAS.
