How does a provider determine the usefulness, appropriateness, of a screening test? -

positives. Screening test should be relatively inexpensive, easy to administer, and have
minimal side effects. The validity of the screening test is the ability to accurately identify
those that have the disease.

Where would a NP look to find a screening test? - answerUS Preventive Services Task,

What determines if a screening test should be used? - answerDetermining if a

epidemiology investigation or in analyzing any health problem from a research
perspective. Causation is found through further research study to determine the best
interventions in patient care and overall population health. They both work together to
aid evidence-based care by describing patterns of disease in populations and identifying
potential risk factors.

Can you relate causation to primary, secondary and tertiary interventions? -
