A) Tdap, hepatitis B, and HPV vaccine B) DTaP (diphtheria, tetanus, acellular pertussis) and hepatitis B C) Hepatitis B only D) MMR (measles, mumps, rubella), Td, and HPV vaccine

Answer 33

A) Tdap, hepatitis B, and HPV vaccine There are two types of HPV vaccine. Gardasil can be used for both girls and boys, but Cervarix can only be used for females. HPV vaccine is recommended for preteen boys and girls at age 11 or 12 years. Young women can get HPV vaccine until age 27 years and men can get the HPV vaccine until age 22 years.

Question 34

175. All of the following statements are correct regarding the Td vaccine except: A) Fever occurs in up to 80% of the patients B) A possible side effect is induration on the injection site C) The Td is given every 10 years D) The DPT and DT should not be given beyond the seventh birthday 766

Answer 34

A) Fever occurs in up to 80% of the patients Side effects of the Td vaccine include induration at the injection site. Td is given in adults every 10 years. The DPT and DT should not be given beyond 7 years of age. Fever may occur, but studies do not support 80% of patients having fever.

Question 35

179. A 20-year-old college student reports to the student health clinic with a laceration of her left hand. She tells the nurse practitioner that she cut her hand while working in her garden.

A) Administer a booster dose of the Tdap vaccine B) Administer the Td vaccine and the Td immunoglobulin (HyperTET) C) Administer Td immunoglobulin (HyperTET) only D) She does not need any Td immunoglobulin (HyperTET) or a Td booster

Answer 35

A) Administer a booster dose of the Tdap vaccine The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends the Tdap for teens or adults who need a Td booster (once in a lifetime). A tetanus vaccine booster is recommended for recent injuries if it has been more than 5 years since the last dose.

Question 36

182. A 15-year-old boy has just moved into the community and is staying in a foster home temporarily. There is no record of his immunizations. His foster mother wants him to be checked before he enters the local high school. Which of the following immunizations does this patient need? A) Meningococcal vaccine B) Measles–mumps–rubella (MMR) vaccine C) Tdap vaccine D) All of the above

Answer 36

D) All of the above This 15-year-old teenage patient will follow the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) “catch-up” schedule (CDC, 2017) and needs the meningococcal vaccine, MMR vaccine, and Tdap vaccine. In addition to these three vaccines, this patient needs the hepatitis B vaccine, human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine, and varicella vaccine (if no history of chickenpox).

Question 37

``` 365. You would recommend the pneumococcal vaccine (Pneumovax) to patients with all of the following conditions except: A) Sickle cell anemia B) Splenectomy C) HIV infection D) G6PD-deficiency anemia ```

Answer 37

D) G6PD-deficiency anemia Pneumococcal vaccine is not indicated for glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD)-deficiency anemia. There two types of pneumonia vaccine for adults: PPSV23 (Pneumovax 23) and PCV13 (Prevnar 13). Pneumococcal vaccine is recommended for individuals beginning at age 65 years, but the two types should not be given together. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends administering Prevnar 13 first, then waiting at least 1 year (12 months) and giving the Pneumovax. The immunogenic response is better using this method. Prevnar 13 is recommended for all infants and children younger than 2 years of age, all adults aged 65 years or older, and people (2 to 64 years old) with certain medical conditions that increase risk of pneumococcal disease, such as functional or anatomic asplenia (sickle cell), HIV infection, chronic renal failure, leukemia, heart failure, cyanotic congenital heart disease, chronic lung disease (asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease [COPD]), diabetes, and others.

Question 38

``` 461. All of the following vaccines are contraindicated in pregnant women except: A) Influenza B) Mumps C) Varicella D) Rubella ```

Question 39

512. A 13-year-old adolescent girl is brought to the health clinic by her mother for a sports physical. The mother reports that the teen’s last vaccines were given at the age of 6 years. ``` Which of the following vaccines is recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) for this patient? A) Td and HPV vaccines B) Tdap, MCV4, and the HPV vaccines C) DTap and the flu vaccine D) DT and MCV4 vaccines ```

Answer 39

B) Tdap, MCV4, and the HPV vaccines Vaccine questions usually are not this complicated, but there are several lessons that can be learned with this question. The 2017 Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommendations for individuals 13 to 18 years of age are the Tdap catch-up (if not received at age 11–12 years), human papillomavirus (HPV) catch-up (if not received at age 11–12 years), and the MCV4 or meningococcal conjugate vaccine (Menactra). Thereafter, the Td form of the vaccine is indicated every 10 years. The DTaP (diphtheria–tetanus– acellular pertussis) and DT (diphtheria–tetanus) forms of the tetanus vaccine are not given after the age of 7 years.

Question 40

639. All of the following are true statements about the human papillomavirus vaccine (Gardasil) except: A) The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends the first dose at age 11 to 12 years B) The CDC does not recommend the HPV vaccine for males C) For children younger than age 14 years, only two doses of the vaccine are needed D) The minimum age at which the vaccine can be given is 9 years

Answer 40

B) The CDC does not recommend the HPV vaccine for males The HPV vaccine is now recommended for both males and females. If it is given before age 14 years, only two doses are required, But if the child is older than 14 years, three doses are required to be given over 6 months. The vaccine can be given until the age of 26 years, especially if the individual is at high risk. Do not use the vaccine in children younger than 9 years. There are two types of HPV vaccine (Gardasil and Cervarix). Gardasil can be used for both genders, but Cervarix can only be used for females.
