88
tx for Type III
supportive, avoidance of antigen
89
type IV cell-mediated hypersensitivity
step1: antigen exposure activates sensitized T-cells steps2: T-cell activation leads to tissue inflammation 48-96 hours after exposure to antigen **eg: poison Ivy rash, PPD testing for TB**

stages of change
precontemplation contemplation preparation action maintenance
102
describe precontemplation
pt is NOT considering change - physicians goal: incr awareness of why they should consider change \*\*establish rapprt, ask permision to talk about shit, build trust, offer facts, express concern
103
describe contemplation
- pt is considering possibliity of making change, but still uncertain - physicians goal: acknowledge everyone is uncomfortable w change, weigh pros and cons, reinforce pts power in making choice
104
describe preparation
- pt is committed to making a change in the near future but still considering what to do - ps goals: offer advice and expertise regarding tx options, consider barriers and brainstorm steps in overcoming them, discuss whats worked in the past, encourage pt to let friends know
105
describe action
- pt is actively making changes - ps goals: acknowledge difficulties, identify high-risk situations, identify new reinforcers for positive change
