meningitis. This is an example of
a. primary prevention.

b. secondary prevention.



c. tertiary prevention.

d. disease treatment.ANS: A

Primary prevention is prevention of disease by altering susceptibility or reducing exposure for
susceptible individuals by providing vaccination. Secondary prevention is the early detection, screening,
and management of the disease. Tertiary prevention includes rehabilitative and supportive care and
attempts to alleviate disability and restore effective functioning. Disease treatment involves management

3. An obese but otherwise healthy teen is given a prescription for a low-calorie diet and exercise
program. This is an example of
a. primary prevention.

b. secondary prevention.

c. tertiary prevention.

d. disease treatment.ANS: B
Secondary prevention is the early detection, screening, and management of the disease such as
prescribing diet and exercise for an individual who has already developed obesity.
Primary prevention is prevention of disease by altering susceptibility or reducing exposure for
susceptible individuals. Tertiary prevention includes rehabilitative and supportive care and attempts to
alleviate disability and restore effective functioning. Disease treatment involves management of the
disease once it has developed.




4. A patient with high blood pressure who is otherwise healthy is counseled to restrict sodium
intake. This is an example of
a. primary prevention.

b. secondary prevention.

c. tertiary prevention.

d. disease treatment.ANS: B
Secondary prevention is the early detection, screening, and management of the disease, such as by
prescribing sodium restriction for high blood pressure. Primary prevention is prevention of disease by
altering susceptibility or reducing exposure for susceptible individuals. Tertiary prevention includes
rehabilitative and supportive care and attempts to alleviate disability and restore effective functioning.
Disease treatment involves management of the disease once it has developed.
5. After suffering a heart attack, a middle-aged man is counseled to take a cholesterol-lowering
medication. This is an example of
a. primary prevention.

b. secondary prevention.

c. tertiary prevention.

d. disease treatment.ANS: C
Tertiary prevention includes rehabilitative and supportive care and attempts to alleviate disability and
restore effective functioning such as prescribing a cholesterol-lowering
medication following a heart attack. Primary prevention is prevention of disease by altering susceptibility
or reducing expUosuSre fNor sTusceptibOle individuals. Secondary prevention is the

Incubation refers to the interval between exposure of a tissue to an injurious agent and the first
appearance of signs and symptoms. In infectious diseases, this period is often called the incubation
(latent) period. Prodromal refers to the appearance of the first signs and symptoms indicating the onset
of a disease. These are often nonspecific, such as headache, malaise, anorexia, and nausea, which are
associated with a number of different diseases.
Sequela refers to subsequent pathologic condition resulting from a disease. Convalescence is the stageof
recovery after a disease, injury, or surgical operation.

c. pandemic.

d. ethnographic.

ANS: B

A disease that is native to a particular region is called endemic. An epidemic is a disease that spreads to
many individuals at the same time. Pandemics are epidemics that affect large geographic regions,
perhaps spreading worldwide.


8. In general, with aging, organ size and function

a. increase.

b. decrease.

c. remain the same.

d. are unknown.

ANS: B

In general, with aging, organ size and function decrease.



9. The stage during which the patient functions normally, although the disease processes are well
established, is referred to as
a. latent.

b. subclinical.

c. prodromal.

d. convalescence.

ANS: B

The stage during which the patient functions normally, although the disease processes are well
established, is called the subclinical stage. The interval between exposure of a tissue to an injurious agent
and the fNirUstRapSpIeaNraGnTceBo.f CsigOnMs and symptoms may be called a latent
period or, in the case of infectious diseases, an incubation period. The prodromal period, or

prodrome, refers to the appearance of the first signs and symptoms indicating the onset of a disease.
Convalescence is the stage of recovery after a disease, injury, or surgical operation.
