MULTIPLE CHOICE 5
1. C.Q. was recently exposed to group A hemolytic Streptococcus and subsequently developed a phar
5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5
yngeal infection. His clinic examination reveals an oral temperature of 102.3°F, skin rash, dysphag
5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5
ia, and reddened throat mucosa with multiple pustules. He complains of sore throat, malaise, and jo
5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5
int stiffness. A throat culture is positive for Streptococcus, and antibiotics have been prescribed. Th
5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5
e etiology of C.Q.’s disease is
5 5 5 5 5
a. a sore throat. 5 5
b. streptococcal infection. 5
c. genetic susceptibility. 5
d. pharyngitis.
ANS: B 5
Etiology refers to the proposed cause or causes of a particular disease process. A sore throat is the
5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5
5manifestation of the disease process. Genetic susceptibility refers to inherited tendency to devel
5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5
op a disease. Pharyngitis refers to inflammation of the throat and is also a clinical manifestation o
5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5

ANS: A 5
Primary prevention is prevention of disease by altering susceptibility or reducing exposure for su
5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5
sceptible individuals, in this case by providing vaccination. Secondary prevention is the early
5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5
detection, screening, and management of the disease. Tertiary prevention includes rehabilitative
5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5
and supportive care and attempts to alleviate disability and restore effective functioning. Disease
5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5

Secondary prevention is the early detection, screening, and management of the disease such as pr

5 5 5 5 5
a. primary prevention. 5

ANS: B 5
Secondary prevention is the early detection, screening, and management of the disease, such as
5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5
by prescribing sodium restriction for high blood pressure. Primary prevention is prevention of dis

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

lowering medication. This is an example of 5 5 5 5 5 5
a. primary prevention. 5
b. secondary prevention. 5
c. tertiary prevention. 5
d. disease treatment. 5
ANS: C 5
Tertiary prevention includes rehabilitative and supportive care and attempts to alleviate disability
5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5
5and restore effective functioning such as prescribing a cholesterol-
5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5
lowering medication following a heart attack. Primary prevention is prevention of disease by alte

ring susceptibility or reducing exposure for susceptible individuals. Secondary prevention is the
5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5
early detection, screening, and management of the disease. Disease treatment involves managem

6. A patient has been exposed to meningococcal meningitis, but is not yet demonstrating signs of this
5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5
disease. This stage of illness is called the5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 stage.
a. prodromal
b. latent
c. sequela
d. convalescence
ANS: B 5
Incubation refers to the interval between exposure of a tissue to an injurious agent and the first ap
5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5
pearance of signs and symptoms. In infectious diseases, this period is often called the incubation (
5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5
latent) period. Prodromal refers to the appearance of the first signs and symptoms indicating the
5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5
onset of a disease. These are often nonspecific, such as headache, malaise, anorexia, and nausea,
5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5
which are associated with a number of different diseases. Sequela refers to subsequent pathologi
5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5
c condition resulting from a disease. Convalescence is the stage of recovery after a disease, injury

The stage during which the patient functions normally, although the disease processes are well esta

f infectious diseases, an incubation period. The prodromal period, or prodrome, refers to the appe

arance of the first signs and symptoms indicating the onset of a disease. Convalescence is the stage

Gender, situations (e.g., altitude), normal variations, and illness may all determine red blood cell
5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5
count. Culture affects how manifestations are perceived (normal versus abnormal).
