MULTIPLE CHOICE v




1. C.Q. was recently exposed to group A hemolytic Streptococcus and subsequently
v v v v v v v v v v




developed apharyngeal infection. His clinic examination reveals an oral temperature
v v v v v v v v v v




of102.3°F, skin rash,dysphagia, and reddened throat mucosa with multiple pustules.
v v v v v v v v v v v




Hecomplains of sore throat, malaise, and joint stiffness. A throat culture is positive
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v




for Streptococcus, and antibiotics havebeen prescribed. The etiology of C.Q.’s
v v v v v v v v v v




disease is
v v




a. a sore throat. v v




b. streptococcal infection. v




c. genetic susceptibility. v




d. pharyngitis.

ANS: B
Etiology refers to the proposed cause or causes of a particular disease process.
v v v v v v v v v v v v




A sore throat isthe manifestation of the disease process. Genetic susceptibility
v v v v v v v v v v v




refers to inherited tendency to develop a disease. Pharyngitis refers to
v v v v v v v v v v v




inflammation of thethroat and is also a clinical manifestation of the disease
v v v v v v v v v v v v v




process.

2. A 17-year-old college-bound student receives a vaccine against an organism that
v v v v v v v v v v




causesmeningitis. This is an example of
v v v v v v




a. primary prevention. v




b. secondary prevention. v




c. tertiary prevention. v

,d. disease treatment.
v

, ANS: A
Primary prevention is prevention of disease by altering susceptibility or reducing
v v v v v v v v v v




exposure forsusceptible individuals, in this case by providing vaccination. Secondary
v v v v v v v v v v




prevention is the early detection, screening, and management of the disease.
v v v v v v v v v v v




Tertiaryprevention includes rehabilitative and supportive care and attempts to
v v v v v v v v v




alleviate disability and restore effective functioning. Disease treatment involves
v v v v v v v v v




management ofthe disease once it has developed.

3. An obese but otherwise healthy teen is given a prescription for a low-calorie diet and
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v




v exerciseprogram. This is an example of v v v v v




a. primary prevention. v




b. secondary prevention. v




c. tertiary prevention. v




d. disease treatment. v




ANS: B
Secondary prevention is the early detection, screening, and management of the
v v v v v v v v v v




diseasesuch asprescribing diet and exercise for an individual who has already
v v v v v v v v v v v v




developedobesity. Primary prevention is prevention of disease by altering
v v v v v v v v v v




susceptibility orreducing exposure for susceptible individuals. Tertiary prevention
v v v v v v v v v




includes rehabilitative and supportive care and attempts to alleviate disability and
v v v v v v v v v v v




restoreeffective functioning. Disease treatment involves management of the disease
v v v v v v v v v v




once it has developed.

, 4. A patient with high blood pressure who is otherwise healthy is counseled to
v v v v v v v v v v v v




restrict sodiumintake. This is an example of
v v v v v v v




a. primary prevention. v




b. secondary prevention. v




c. tertiary prevention. v




d. disease treatment. v




ANS: B
Secondary prevention is the early detection, screening, and management of the
v v v v v v v v v v




disease, such as by prescribing sodium restriction for high blood pressure. Primary
v v v v v v v v v v v v




prevention is preventionof disease by altering susceptibility or reducing exposure for
v v v v v v v v v v v




susceptible individuals. Tertiary prevention includes rehabilitative and supportive
v v v v v v v v




carev




and attempts to alleviate disability and restore effective functioning. Disease treatment
v v v v v v v v v v




involves management of the disease once it has developed.
v v v v v v v v v




5. After suffering a heart attack, a middle-aged man is counseled to take a cholesterol-
v v v v v v v v v v v v v




vloweringmedication. This is an example of v v v v v




a. primary prevention. v




b. secondary prevention. v




c. tertiary prevention. v




d. disease treatment. v




ANS: C
Tertiary prevention includes rehabilitative and supportive care and attempts to alleviate
v v v v v v v v v v




disability and restore effective functioning such as prescribing a cholesterol-lowering
v v v v v v v v v v




medication following a heart attack. Primary prevention is prevention of disease by
v v v v v v v v v v v v




alteringsusceptibility or reducing exposure for susceptible individuals. Secondary
v v v v v v v v




prevention is theearly detection, screening, and management of the disease. Disease
v v v v v v v v v v v




treatment involves management of the disease once it has developed.

6. A patient has been exposed to meningococcal meningitis, but is not yet demonstrating
v v v v v v v v v v v v




signs ofthis disease. This stage of illness is called the
v v v v v v v v v v stage.
a. prodromal
b. latent
c. sequela
d. convalescence

ANS: B
Incubation refers to the interval between exposure of a tissue to an injurious
v v v v v v v v v v v v




agent andthe firstappearance of signs and symptoms. In infectious diseases, this period
v v v v v v v v v v v v v




is often called the incubation (latent) period. Prodromal refers to the appearance of the
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v




first signs and symptoms indicating the onset of a disease. These are often
v v v v v v v v v v v v v




nonspecific,such as headache, malaise, anorexia, and nausea, which are associated
v v v v v v v v v v v




with a numberof different diseases. Sequela refersto subsequent pathologic
v v v v v v v v v




condition resulting from
v v v




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




surgical operation.

7. A v disease that is native to a particular region is called
v v v v v v v v v




a. epidemic.
b. endemic.
c. pandemic.
d. ethnographic.
