Feedback:
The WHO definition of health is defined as “a state of complete physical, mental, and
social well-being and not merely the absence of disease and infirmity.” Engaging in
book reviews facilitates mental and social well-being; chair aerobics helps facilitate
physical well-being; and assisting with tight control of diabetes helps with facilitating
physical well-being even though the person has a chronic disease. Handwashing is vital
in the prevention of disease and spread of germs.
2.A community health nurse is teaching a group of recent graduates about the large
variety of factors that influence an individual's health or lack thereof. The nurse is
referring to the Healthy People 2020 report from the U.S. Department of Health and
Human Services as a teaching example. Of the following aspects discussed, which
would be considered a determinant of health that is outside the focus of this report?
A)The client has a diverse background by being of Asian and Native American descent
and practices various alternative therapies to minimize effects of stress.
B)The client has a family history of cardiovascular disease related to
hypercholesterolemia and remains noncompliant with the treatment regime.
C)The client has a good career with exceptional preventative health care benefits.
D)The client lives in an affluent, clean, suburban community with access to many
health care facilities.
ANSWER: B
Feedback:
In Healthy People 2020, the focus is to promote good health to all (such as using

alternative therapies to minimize effects of stress); achieving health equity and
promoting health for all (which includes having good health care benefits); and
promoting good health (which includes living in a clean community with good access
to health care). A client's noncompliance with treatments to control high cholesterol
levels within the presence of a family history of CV disease does not meet the
“attaining lives free of preventable disease and premature death” determinant.
3.A physician is providing care for a number of patients on a medical unit of a large,
university hospital. The physician is discussing with a colleague the differentiation
between diseases that are caused by abnormal molecules and diseases that cause disease.
Which of the following patients most clearly demonstrates the consequences of
molecules that cause disease?
A)A 31-year-old woman with sickle cell anemia who is receiving a transfusion of
packed red blood cells
B)A 91-year-old woman who has experienced an ischemic stroke resulting from
familial hypercholesterolemia
C)A 19-year-old man with exacerbation of his cystic fibrosis requiring oxygen therapy
and chest physiotherapy
D)A 30-year-old homeless man who has Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia (PCP) and is
HIV positive.

PCP is an example of the effect of a molecule that directly contributes to disease. Sickle
cell anemia, familial hypercholesterolemia, and cystic fibrosis are all examples of the
effects of abnormal molecules.
4.A new myocardial infarction patient requiring angioplasty and stent placement has
arrived to his first cardiac rehabilitation appointment. In this first session, a review of
the pathogenesis of coronary artery disease is addressed. Which statement by the
patient verifies to the nurse that he has understood the nurse's teachings about coronary
artery disease?
A)“All I have to do is stop smoking, and then I won't have any more heart attacks.”
B)“My artery was clogged by fat, so I will need to stop eating fatty foods like French
fries every day.”
C)“Sounds like this began because of inflammation inside my artery that made it easy
to form fatty streaks, which lead to my clogged artery.”
D)“If I do not exercise regularly to get my heart rate up, blood pools in the veins
causing a clot that stops blood flow to the muscle, and I will have a heart attack.”
ANSWER: C
Feedback:
The true etiology/cause of coronary artery disease (CAD) is unknown; however, the
pathogenesis of the disorder relates to the progression of the inflammatory process from
a fatty streak to the occlusive vessel lesion seen in people with coronary artery disease.
