Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Immunizations/vaccinations are considered primary prevention measures, those strategies aimed at optimizing health and disease prevention in general. Immunizations/vaccinations are primary prevention measures for individuals across the life span, not just children. Secondary prevention measures are those designed to identify individuals in an early state of a disease process so that prompt treatment can be started. Tertiary prevention measures are those that minimize the effects of disease and disability.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Blood pressure screening is considered secondary prevention. It is a measure designed to identify individuals in an early state of a disease process so that prompt treatment can be started. Illness prevention is considered primary prevention. Primary prevention measures are those strategies aimed at optimizing health and disease prevention in general and not linked to a single disease entity. Tertiary prevention measures are those that minimize the effects of disease and disability.
