1. C.Q. was recently exposed to group A hemolytic Streptococcus and subsequently developed
g g g g g g g g g g g
a pharyngeal infection. His clinic examination reveals an oral temperature of 102.3 F, skin rash,
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
dysphagia, and reddened throat mucosa with multiple pustules. He complains of sore throat,
g g g g g g g g g g g g g
malaise, and joint stiffness. A throat culture is positive for Streptococcus, and antibiotics have been
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
prescribed.
g
The etiology of C.Q.’s disease is
g g g g g
a. a sore throat.
g g
b. streptococcal infection. g
c. genetic susceptibility. g
d. pharyngitis.
ANS: B g
Etiology refers to the proposed cause or causes of a particular disease process. A sore throat is the
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
manifestation of the disease process. Genetic susceptibility refers to inherited tendency to develop a
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
disease. Pharyngitis refers to inflammation of the throat and is also a clinical manifestation of the
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
disease process.

Primary prevention is prevention of disease by altering susceptibility or reducing exposure for
g g g g g g g g g g g g
susceptible individuals by providing vaccination. Secondary prevention is the early detection, screening,
g g g g g g g g g g g g
and management of the disease. Tertiary prevention includes rehabilitative and supportive care and
g g g g g g g g g g g g g
,attempts to alleviate disability and restore effective functioning. Disease treatment involves
g g g g g g g g g g
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
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
program. This is an example of
g g g g g g
a. primary prevention. g
b. secondary prevention. g
c. tertiary prevention. g
d. disease treatment. g
ANS: B
g
Secondary prevention is the early detection, screening, and management of the disease such as
g g g g g g g g g g g g g
prescribing diet and exercise for an individual who has already developed obesity.

4. A patient with high blood pressure who is otherwise healthy is counseled to restrict sodium
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
intake. This is an example of
g g g g g g
a. primary prevention. g
b. secondary prevention. g
c. tertiary prevention. g

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

g g g g g g g g g g g g g
medication. This is an example of
g g g g g g
a. primary prevention. g
b. secondary prevention. g
c. tertiary prevention. g
d. disease treatment. g
ANS: C g
Tertiary prevention includes rehabilitative and supportive care and attempts to alleviate disability and
g g g g g g g g g g g g
restore effective functioning such as prescribing a cholesterol-lowering
g g g g g g g g
medication following a heart attack. Primary prevention is prevention of disease by altering
g g g g g g g g g g g g
susceptibility or reducing expUosuSre fNor sTusceptibOle individuals. Secondary prevention is the
g g g g g g g g g g g
early detection, screening, and management of the disease. Disease treatment involves management of
g g g g g g g g g g g g
the disease once it has developed.
g g g g g g
6. A patient has been exposed to meningococcal meningitis, but is not yet demonstrating signs of
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
this disease. This stage of illness is called the stage.
g g g g g g g g g
a. prodromal
b. latent
c. sequela
d. convalescence
ANS: B
g g
Incubation refers to the interval between exposure of a tissue to an injurious agent and the first
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
gappearance of signs and symptoms. In infectious diseases, this period is often called the incubation
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
g(latent) period. Prodromal refers to the appearance of the first signs and symptoms indicating the onset
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
gof a disease. These are often nonspecific, such as headache, malaise, anorexia, and nausea, which are
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g
gassociated with a number of different diseases.
g g g g g g
Sequela refers to subsequent pathologic condition resulting from a disease. Convalescence is the stage
g g g g g g g g g g g g g
of recovery after a disease, injury, or surgical operation.
g g g g g g g g g
7. A disease that is native to a particular region is called
g g g g g g g g g g
a. epidemic.
b. endemic.
