MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. CQ was recently exposed to group A bemolytic Streptococcus and subsequently developed a pharyngeal infection. His clinic examination reveals an oral temperature of 102.3″ F. skin rash, dysphagia, and reddened throat rocosa with multiple postales. He complains of sore throat, malaise, and joint stiffness. A throat culture is positive for Streptococcus, and antibiotics have been prescribed. The etiology of C.Q’s disease is
a a sore throat
bstreptococcal infection. genetic susceptibility.
d. pharyngitis
ANS: B
Etiology refers to the proposed cause or causes of a particular disease process. A sore throat is the minifestation of the disease process. Genetic susceptibility refers to inherited tendency to develop a disease. Pharyngitis refers to inflammation of the throat and is also a clinical manifestation of the disease process.
2. A 17-year-old college-bound student receives a vaccine against an organism that causes meningitis. This is an example of
primary prevention. secondary prevention.
Sertiary prevention.
d disease treatment
ANS: A
Primary prevention is prevention of disease by altering susceptibility of 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 of the disease once it has developed.
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.

ANS: B
Test Bank -Pathophysiology 7th Edition (Jacquelyn L. Banasik)
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 sodram intake. This is an example of
primary prevention.
bsecondary prevention
. tertiary prevention
4. 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
primary prevention
bsecondary prevention
c. tertiary prevention
4. disease treatment.
ANS: C
Tertiary prevention includes sehabilitative and supportive case 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 of reducing exposure for susceptible individuals. Secondary prevention is the early detection, screening, and management of the disease. Disease treatment involves management of the disease once it has developed
6. A patient has been exposed to meningococcal meningitis, but is not yet demonstrating signs of this disease. This stage of illness is called the stage.
prodromal
b. latent

d convalescence
ANS: B
Test Bank-Pathophysiology 7th Edition (Jacquelyn L. Bank)
Incubation refers to the interval between exposure of a tissue to an injurious agent and the fint 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 stage of recovery after a disease, injury, or surgical operation.
7. A disease that is native to a particular region is called
bendemic.
e. pandemic
4 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

ANS
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 reemed to as

d convalescence.
SKY
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 first appearance of signs 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 adher a disease, injury, or surgical operation
