CMN 571 FINAL EXAM STUDY GUIDEReview the types of immunity
(Start Module 1) - answerInnate immunity: Everyone is born with innate (or natural)
immunity, a type of general protection. For example, the skin acts as a barrier to block
germs from entering the body. And the immune system recognizes when certain
invaders are foreign and could be dangerous.
Adaptive immunity: Adaptive (or active) immunity develops throughout our lives. We
develop adaptive immunity when we're exposed to diseases or when we're immunized
against them with vaccines.
Passive immunity: Passive immunity is "borrowed" from another source and it lasts for a
short time. For example, antibodies in a mother's breast milk give a baby temporary
immunity to diseases the mother has been exposed to
active immunity - answerActive immunity is usually permanent.Acquired through
exposure and infection with the disease or artificially acquired through
immunization.Onset is a few weeks and usually last a lifetime
passive immunity - answerA person is given antibodies to a disease rather than
produterm-61cing their own & it is short -term immunity. ( Example Mother to baby).
herd immunity - answerThis occurs when a significant portion of the population is
vaccinated and that provides a portion of immunity for those that have not developed
immunity. The population (herd) helps prevent disease in the unprotected population.
The herd protects those who can not safely get vaccinations. Generally 90 -95% of the
population should be vaccinated to haveeffective Herd immunity.

CDC immunization schedule. - answer

(4 Dr Hip)
Immunizations @ 6 mths - answerHepB, DTaP, RV, Hib, Influenza (yrly) PCV, IPV
(B Dr Hip In 6mths)
,Immunizations @ 1-1.5 yrs - answerMMR, HepA, DTaP, Hib, PCV, Varicella
(1 MAD HPV)

How long should live-virus vaccination be delayed if an immunoglobulin (1g) or blood
product was given? - answer3-11 months
What paperwork is required to review with the caregiver/parent before vaccination
administration? - answerVaccine Information Sheets (VIS) for each vaccine given.
Obtain from CDC website. Dr. Lang's notes.
What is the difference between DTap and Tdap? - answer. The pediatric formulation will
have about 3-5 times the amount of diphtheria component compared to the adult
formulation. Therefore, you will see it indicated with an upper-case "D" (DTaP) and
lower-case "d" in the adult formulation (Tdap, Td).
Think of it like this, DTaP helps young children develop immunity to diphtheria, tetanus,
and (whooping cough) pertussis. Tdap served as a "booster" for continued protection.
How many HepB doses does a child need before 6yo and which months are they

Newborn Screening Program - answerCriteria for screening newborns for a disorder
include its frequency, its consequences if untreated, the ability of therapy to mitigate
consequences, the cost of testing, and the cost of treatment. With the availability of
tandem mass spectrometry, newborn screening has expanded greatly to now include 35
core conditions and multiple secondary conditions screened by most states. In general,
amino acidopathies, organic acidurias, and disorders of fatty acid oxidation are the
disorders for which screening now occurs. Most states also screen for hypothyroidism,
congenital adrenal hyperplasia, hemoglobinopathies, biotinidase deficiency,
galactosemia, cystic fibrosis, and severe combined immune deficiency. Point-of-care
screening occurs for hearing loss and congenital heart disease. An increasing number
of states have begun screening for some of the lysosomal and peroxisomal disorders,
and a few states have begun screening for spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). The
Recommended Uniform Screening Panel (RUSP) from the Secretary of the Department
of Health and Human Services provides guidance for the addition of new disorders to
