Answer to Question 1

A
Feedback
A Emergency contraception is most effective when used within 72 hours of
intercourse but may be used with lessened effectiveness up to 120 hours later.
B The first dose of an emergency contraception should be taken within 72 hours
after coitus.
C Insertion of the copper IUD within 5 days of intercourse may also be used and is
up to 99 effective.
D The common side effect of postcoital contraception is nausea.

Answer to Question 2

B
Feedback
A Routine immunizations are appropriate; however, CD4+ cell counts should be
assessed before administering the MMR and varicella vaccines to establish
adequate immune system function.
B Routine immunizations are appropriate. CD4+ cells are monitored when
deciding whether to provide live virus vaccines. If the child is severely
immunocompromised, the MMR vaccine is not given. The varicella vaccine can
be considered on the basis of the child's CD4+ counts. Only inactivated polio
virus (IPV) should be used for HIV-infected children.
C Immunizations are given to infants who are HIV positive.
D The pertussis vaccination is not eliminated for an infant who is HIV positive.
