Question 1 of 5
What is the legal basis of the Primary Health Care approach in the Philippines?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Letter of Instruction No. 949. This document issued by the Philippine government in 1979 officially adopted the Primary Health Care (PHC) approach. It outlined the strategies and framework for implementing PHC nationwide. The Alma Ata Declaration on PHC (A) is a global agreement but not the legal basis in the Philippines. Presidential Decree No. 147 (C) and Presidential Decree No. 996 (D) do not specifically address the PHC approach. Therefore, the legal basis for PHC in the Philippines is Letter of Instruction No. 949.
Question 2 of 5
In a municipality with a population of about 20,000, estimate the number of 1-4 year old children who should be given Retinol capsules 200,000 every 6 months.
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D (2,300). To estimate the number of 1-4 year old children who should be given Retinol capsules 200,000 every 6 months in the municipality, we can use the rule of thumb that around 10-15% of the population falls within the 1-4 age group. With a population of 20,000, this translates to approximately 2,000-3,000 children. Since 200,000 capsules are provided every 6 months, we can divide this by the number of children to determine the number of capsules per child. Therefore, 200,000 / 2,300 ≈ 87 capsules per child over 6 months, which is a reasonable estimate. Summary of other choices: A: 1,500 - This is too low given the population estimate and age group percentage. B: 1,800 - This is also too low given the population estimate and age group percentage. C
Question 3 of 5
Estimate the number of pregnant women who will be given tetanus toxoid during an immunization outreach activity in a barangay with a population of about 1,500.
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: 265. To estimate the number of pregnant women receiving tetanus toxoid during an outreach activity, we can use the average prevalence rate of 17.7 pregnant women per 1,000 population. So, 1,500 * 17.7 / 1,000 = 26.55, which rounds to 27 pregnant women. Since the population is 1,500, we can estimate that around 27 * 10 = 270 pregnant women. However, not all pregnant women may attend the activity, so we can further estimate that around 270 * 0.98 = 265 pregnant women will likely receive tetanus toxoid. Summary of other choices: B: 300 - Overestimates the number of pregnant women likely to receive tetanus toxoid. C: 375 - Overestimates even more, not a reasonable estimate based on the given population. D: 400 - Significantly overestimates the number
Question 4 of 5
Which demographic tool may be used to describe the sex composition of the population?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D because all of the choices can be used to describe the sex composition of the population. A, the sex ratio, compares the number of males to females. B, sex proportion, also refers to the distribution of males and females in a population. C, population pyramid, visually displays the age and sex distribution of a population. Therefore, any of these tools can be utilized to describe the sex composition accurately.
Question 5 of 5
Which of the following is a natality rate?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Crude birth rate. Natality rate refers to the number of live births per 1,000 people in a population per year. The crude birth rate includes all live births in a population without any adjustments. B: Neonatal mortality rate measures the number of deaths within the first 28 days of life per 1,000 live births. C: Infant mortality rate measures the number of deaths within the first year of life per 1,000 live births. D: General fertility rate measures the number of live births per 1,000 women of childbearing age.
