q161 - sami2004 - ArchivalUser - 11-07-2010 A healthy 50-year-old mother of three moves to your town from an inner-city area where she received no regular health care. She has never had any immunizations, will be working as a librarian, and plans no international travel. History and physical examination do not suggest any underlying chronic illnesses. Which of the following immunizations would you recommend for this patient? ❏ A. Measles, mumps, rubella ❏ B. Hepatitis B ❏ C. Tetanus-diphtheria ❏ D. Pneumococcal ❏ D. All of the above 0 - ArchivalUser - 11-07-2010 ❏ C. Tetanus-diphtheria 0 - ArchivalUser - 11-08-2010 d? 0 - ArchivalUser - 11-08-2010 ccc 0 - ArchivalUser - 11-08-2010 garg good morning, i was wondering what gargpositive means honestly have been wondering for some time, plz let me know is that some test? 0 - ArchivalUser - 11-08-2010 The case-fatality rate is 42% in individuals older than 50 years. This patient should therefore receive the primary series of three immunizations with tetanus-diphtheria toxoids. Because she was born before 1957, she is likely to be immune to measles, mumps, and rubella. She does not appear to fall into one of the high-risk groups for whom hepatitis A, hepatitis B, and pneumococcal vaccinations are recommended. (Answer: C—Tetanus-diphtheria 0 - ArchivalUser - 11-08-2010 garg each letter is first letter of my family positive is just like that 0 - ArchivalUser - 11-08-2010 thanks garg |
