Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 4
Rationale 1: Primary prevention focuses on protecting the normal line of defense and strengthening the flexible line of defense.
Rationale 2: Secondary prevention focuses on strengthening internal lines of resistance, reducing the reaction, and increasing resistance factors.
Rationale 3: Secondary prevention focuses on strengthening internal lines of resistance, reducing the reaction, and increasing resistance factors.
Rationale 4: According to Neuman's model, nursing interventions focus on retaining or maintaining system stability and are carried out on three preventive levels: primary, secondary, and tertiary. Tertiary prevention focuses on readaptation and stability and protects reconstitution or return to wellness following treatment. A final follow-up appointment following extensive rehabilitation would be an example of tertiary prevention.

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 2
Rationale 1: Primary prevention focuses on protecting the normal line of defense and strengthening the flexible line of defense.
Rationale 2: Secondary prevention focuses on strengthening internal lines of resistance (fighting the infection with IV antibiotics), reducing the reaction, and increasing resistance factors. The fact that the client is now afebrile shows that the treatment is working to improve the client's condition.
Rationale 3: Tertiary prevention focuses on readaptation and stability and protects reconstitution or return to wellness following treatment.
Rationale 4: Critical prevention is not part of Neuman's model.
