1. C.Q. was recentlyexposed to group A hemolytic Streptococcus and subsequentlydeveloped a
v v v v v v v v v v v v
pharyngeal infection. His clinic examination reveals an oral temperatureof 102.3°F, skin rash,
v v v v v v v v v v v v v
dysphagia, and reddened throat mucosa with multiple pustules. He complains of sore throat,
v v v v v v v v v v v v v
malaise, and joint stiffness. A throat culture is positive for Streptococcus, and antibiotics have been
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
prescribed. The etiology of C.Q.’s disease is
v v v v v v v
a. asorethroat. v v
b. streptococcalinfection. v
c. geneticsusceptibility. v
d. pharyngitis.
CORRECT ANS: B v v
Etiologyrefers to the proposed cause or causes of a particular disease process. A sorethroat is the
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
manifestation of the disease process. Genetic susceptibility refers to inherited tendency to develop a
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
disease. Pharyngitis refers to inflammation of the throat and is also a clinical manifestation of the
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
disease process.

2. A 17-year-old college-bound student receives avaccine against an organism that causes
v v v v v v v v v v v
vmeningitis. This is an example of v v v v v
a. primaryprevention. v
b. secondaryprevention. v
c. tertiaryprevention. v
d. diseasetreatment. v
CORRECT ANS: A v v
Primaryprevention is prevention ofdisease byalteringsusceptibilityor reducing exposurefor
v v v v v v v v v v v v
susceptible individuals, in this case by providing vaccination. Secondary prevention is the early
v v v v v v v v v v v v v
detection, screening, and management of the disease. Tertiary prevention includes rehabilitative
v v v v v v v v v v v
and supportive care and attempts to alleviate disability and restore effective functioning. Disease
v v v v v v v v v v v v v
treatment involves management of the disease once it has developed.

3. An obese but otherwise healthyteen is given a prescription for a low-calorie diet and exercise
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
vprogram. This is an example of v v v v v
a. primaryprevention. v
b. secondaryprevention. v
c. tertiaryprevention. v
d. diseasetreatment. v
,CORRECT ANS: B
v v
,Secondaryprevention is theearlydetection,screening, and management ofthediseasesuch as
v v v v v v v v v v v v v
prescribing diet and exercise for an individual who has already developed obesity. Primary
v v v v v v v v v v v v v
prevention is prevention of disease by altering susceptibility or reducing exposure for susceptible
v v v v v v v v v v v v v
individuals. Tertiary prevention includes rehabilitative and supportive care and attempts to
v v v v v v v v v v v
alleviate disability and restore effective functioning. Disease treatment involves management of
v v v v v v v v v v v
the disease once it has developed.

This is an example of
v v v v v
a. primaryprevention. v
b. secondaryprevention. v
c. tertiaryprevention. v
d. diseasetreatment. v
CORRECT ANS: B v v
Secondary prevention is the early detection, screening, and management of the disease, such as by
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
prescribingsodium restriction for high blood pressure. Primaryprevention is prevention of disease
v v v v v v v v v v v v v
by altering susceptibility or reducing exposure for susceptible individuals. Tertiary prevention
v v v v v v v v v v v
includes rehabilitative and supportive care and attempts to alleviate disability and restore effective
v v v v v v v v v v v v v
functioning. Disease treatment involves management of the disease once it has developed.

5. Aftersufferinga heart attack, a middle-aged man is counseled to take a cholesterol-lowering
v v v v v v v v v v v v v
vmedication. This is an example of v v v v v
a. primaryprevention. v
b. secondaryprevention. v
c. tertiaryprevention. v
d. diseasetreatment. v
CORRECT ANS: C v v
Tertiary prevention includes rehabilitative and supportive care and attempts to alleviate disability
v v v v v v v v v v v
and restore effective functioning such as prescribing a cholesterol-lowering medication following a
v v v v v v v v v v v v
heart attack. Primaryprevention is prevention of disease byaltering susceptibilityor reducing
v v v v v v v v v v v v v
exposure for susceptible individuals. Secondaryprevention is the early detection, screening, and
v v v v v v v v v v v v
management of the disease. Disease treatment involves management of the disease once it has
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
developed.

6. A patient has been exposed to meningococcal meningitis, but is not yet demonstratingsigns of this
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
disease. This stage of illness is called the
v v v v v v v v stage.
a. prodromal
b. latent
c. sequela
d. convalescence
CORRECT ANS: B v v
Incubation refers to theinterval between exposure ofatissue to aninjurious agent and thefirst
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
appearance of signs and symptoms. In infectious diseases, this period is often called the incubation
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
(latent) period. Prodromal refers to the appearance of the first signs and symptoms indicating the
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
onset of a disease. These are often nonspecific, such as headache, malaise, anorexia, and nausea,
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
which are associated with a number of different diseases. Sequela refers to subsequent pathologic
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
condition resulting from a disease. Convalescence is the stage of recovery after a disease, injury, or
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v
surgical operation.
