Ch. 1 #1 As part of a screening program for prostate cancer, men at a senior
citizens' center are having their blood levels of prostate-specific antigen (PSA)
measured. Which of the following statements would best characterize a high
positive predictive value but a low negative predictive value for this screening test?
A) All of the men who had high PSA levels developed prostate cancer; several
men who had low PSA levels also developed prostate cancer.
B) All of the men who had low PSA levels were cancer-free; several men who had
high levels also remained free of prostate cancer.
C) Men who had low PSA levels also displayed false-positive results for prostate
cancer; men with high levels were often falsely diagnosed with prostate cancer.
D) The test displayed low sensitivity but high specificity. - ANSWER-Ans: A
The test's inability to rule out cancer with a low PSA level indicates a low negative
predictive value. Answer B suggests a high negative predictive value, while answer
,C indicates a low positive predictive value. High positive predictive value is
associated with high sensitivity
Ch. 1 #2 A male international business traveler has returned from a trip to
Indonesia. While there, he hired a prostitute for companionship and engaged in
unprotected sex on more than one occasion. Unbeknownst to him, this prostitute
harbored the hepatitis C virus. Upon return to the United States, he exhibited no
symptoms and returned to his usual activities. During this period of no outward
symptoms, the man would be classified as being in
A) the preclinical stage of disease.
B) remission and unlikely to develop hepatitis C.
C) the clinical disease stage of hepatitis C.
D) the chronic phase of hepatitis C. - ANSWER-Ans: A
During the preclinical stage, the disease is not clinically evident but is destined to
progress to clinical disease.
Ch. 1 #3 As of November 1, 2012, there were a total of 10 confirmed cases of
Hantavirus infection in people who were recent visitors (mid-June to end of
August, 2012) to Yosemite National Park. Three visitors with confirmed cases
died. Health officials believe that 9 out of the 10 people with Hantavirus were
exposed while staying in Curry Village in the Signature Tent Cabins. This is an
example of
A) what the anticipated mortality rate would be if a family of five were planning to
vacation in Yosemite National Park.
B) the prevalence of Hantavirus one can anticipate if he or she is going to vacation
in Yosemite National Park.
C) the low rate of morbidity one can expect while traveling to Yosemite National
Park.
D) the incidence of people who are at risk for developing Hantavirus while staying
in Yosemite National Park. - ANSWER-Ans: D
,The incidence reflects the number of new cases arising in a population at risk
during a specified time.
Ch. 1 #4 A particular disease has a debilitating effect on the ability of sufferers to
perform their activities of daily living and is a significant cause of decreased
quality of life. However, few people die as a result of the disease's direct effects.
There are hundreds of thousands of Americans living with the disease but
relatively few new cases in recent years. Which of the following statements best
conveys an accurate epidemiological characterization of the disease?
A) Low mortality; high morbidity; low prevalence; high incidence
B) Low mortality; high morbidity; high incidence; low prevalence
C) High mortality; low morbidity; high incidence; low prevalence
D) High morbidity; low mortality; high prevalence, low incidence - ANSWER-
Ans: D
Morbidity is associated with quality of life, while mortality is indicative of
causation of death. In this case, morbidity is high and mortality is low. Prevalence
refers to the number of cases present in a population, while incidence refers to the
number of new cases. In this case, prevalence is high, while incidence is low
Ch. 1 #5 At an international nursing conference, many discussions and breakout
sessions focused on the World Health Organization (WHO) views on health. Of the
following comments made by nurses during a discussion session, which statements
would be considered a good representation of the WHO definition? Select all that
apply.
A) Interests in keeping the elderly population engaged in such activities as book
reviews and word games during social time
B) Increase in the number of chair aerobics classes provided in the skilled care
facilities
C) Interventions geared toward keeping the elderly population diagnosed with
diabetes mellitus under tight blood glucose control by providing in-home cooking
classes
, D) Providing transportation for renal dialysis patients to and from their
hemodialysis sessions
E) Providing handwashing teaching sessions to a group of young children -
ANSWER-Ans: A, B, C, E
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.
Ch. 1 #6 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-Ans: B
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.
