A few Peds questions

I was given these questions this week, and can't find a definitive answer anywhere in my notes or textbook. I was wondering if anyone on here could help me out. This is my first Peds rotation.

A. Identity

"Information about morbidity and mortality gives the nurse data to identify which of the following?"

A. Life-span statistics

B. Effectiveness of treatment

C. Cost-effective treatments for general population

(I think that one is D, but I'm not sure)

"Which of the following has had the greatest impact on reducing infant mortality in the United States?"

A. Improvements in perinatal care

B. Decreased incidence of congenital anomalies

I would put "D" for number 3 b/c its the access to healthcare that decreases the infant mortality rate ..so more money more people can get the care needed. I think number 2 is also D..may be A..see what others say on that one
