The Vaccine Adverse Events Reporting System is:
1. A mandatory reporting system for all health-care providers when they encounter an adverse
vaccine event
2. A voluntary reporting system that health-care providers or consumers may use to report
vaccine adverse events
3. Utilized to send out safety alerts regarding emerging vaccine safety issues

The health-care delivery system itself can create barriers to adherence to a treatment regimen.
Which of the following system variables creates such a barrier?
1. Increasing copayments for care
2. Unrestricted formularies for drugs, including brand names
3. Increasing the number of people who have access to care
4. Treating a wider range of disorders - ANS 1
Ralph's blood pressure remains elevated despite increased doses of his drug. The NP is
concerned that he might not be adhering to his treatment regimen. Which of the following events
would suggest that he might not be adherent?
1. Ralph states that he always takes the drug "when I feel my pressure is going up."
2. Ralph contacts his NP to discuss the need to increase the dosage.
3. Ralph consistently keeps his follow-up appointments to check his blood pressure.
4. All of the above show that he is adherent to the drug regimen. - ANS 1
, Nonadherence is especially common in drugs that treat asymptomatic conditions, such as
hypertension. One way to reduce the likelihood of nonadherence to these drugs is to prescribe a
drug that:
1. Has a short half-life so that missing one dose has limited effect
2. Requires several dosage titrations so that missed doses can be replaced with lower doses to
keep costs down
3. Has a tolerability profile with fewer of the adverse effects that are considered "irritating," such
as nausea and dizziness
4. Must be taken no more than twice a day - ANS 3
Factors in chronic conditions that contribute to nonadherence include:
1. The complexity of the treatment regimen
2. The length of time over which it must be taken
3. Breaks in the usual daily routine, such as vacations and weekends
4. All of the above - ANS 4
While patient education about their drugs is important, information alone does not necessarily
lead to adherence to a drug regimen. Patients report greater adherence when:
1. The provider spent a lot of time discussing the drugs with them
2. Their concerns and specific area of knowledge deficit were addressed
3. They were given written material, such as pamphlets, about the drugs
4. The provider used appropriate medical and pharmacological terms - ANS 2
Patients with psychiatric illnesses have adherence rates to their drug regimen between 35% and
60%. To improve adherence in this population, prescribe drugs:
1. With a longer half-life so that missed doses produce a longer taper on the drug curve
2. In oral formulations that are more easily taken
3. That do not require frequent monitoring
