Question 1 of 9
Which of the following vaccines is recommended to be given at birth?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: BCG. BCG vaccine is recommended at birth to prevent tuberculosis. It is given to protect infants from severe forms of TB. Other choices (B: Hepatitis B, C: OPV, D: Measles) are typically given at later stages as part of the routine childhood vaccination schedule. Hepatitis B vaccine is usually given within 24 hours of birth, OPV is given in multiple doses starting at 6 weeks of age, and Measles vaccine is given at around 12-15 months of age. Therefore, BCG is the recommended vaccine to be given at birth compared to the other choices.
Question 2 of 9
Which vitamin deficiency in the pregnant woman may cause neural tube defects?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Folic Acid. Folic Acid deficiency during pregnancy is associated with an increased risk of neural tube defects in the developing fetus. Folic acid is crucial for proper neural tube formation in early pregnancy. Niacin (A), Riboflavin (B), and Thiamine (D) deficiencies do not directly impact neural tube development. Niacin is important for energy production, riboflavin for cell growth and function, and thiamine for nerve function, but they do not specifically affect neural tube closure like folic acid does.
Question 3 of 9
Civil registries are important sources of data. Which law requires registration of births within 30 days from the occurrence of the birth?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: PD 651. This law is the Civil Registry Law, which mandates the registration of births within 30 days. PD 651 was enacted specifically to ensure the timely and accurate recording of vital events. Act 3573 pertains to the reporting of communicable diseases, not birth registration. RA 3753 focuses on the use of an alias or pseudonym, not birth registration. RA 3375 involves the registration of firearms, not births. Overall, PD 651 is the most relevant law in requiring the registration of births within 30 days, making it the correct choice.
Question 4 of 9
During prenatal consultation, a client asked you if she can have her delivery at home. After history taking and physical examination, you advised her against a home delivery. Which of the following findings disqualifies her for a home delivery?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A. The OB score G5P3 means the client has had 5 pregnancies with 3 live births. This indicates a history of multiple pregnancies and deliveries, suggesting a higher risk for complications during labor. This would disqualify her for a home delivery due to the increased potential for obstetric emergencies. Explanation for why the other choices are incorrect: - B: Palmar pallor may indicate anemia but can be managed in a hospital setting. - C: Blood pressure of 130/80 is within normal range and does not necessarily disqualify her for a home delivery. - D: Cephalic presentation means the baby's head is down, which is a favorable position for delivery and does not disqualify her for a home birth.
Question 5 of 9
Which of the following vaccines is recommended to be given at birth?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: BCG. BCG vaccine is recommended at birth to prevent tuberculosis. It is given to protect infants from severe forms of TB. Other choices (B: Hepatitis B, C: OPV, D: Measles) are typically given at later stages as part of the routine childhood vaccination schedule. Hepatitis B vaccine is usually given within 24 hours of birth, OPV is given in multiple doses starting at 6 weeks of age, and Measles vaccine is given at around 12-15 months of age. Therefore, BCG is the recommended vaccine to be given at birth compared to the other choices.
Question 6 of 9
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 7 of 9
Which of the following demonstrates intersectoral linkages?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D because it exemplifies intersectoral linkages by showcasing collaboration between different sectors (public health and education). This cooperation enables sharing of resources, expertise, and information to address broader community health needs. Choice A focuses on a single-sector referral system, Choice B emphasizes teamwork within the same sector, and Choice C highlights endorsement within a specific profession, all lacking the cross-sector collaboration seen in Choice D.
Question 8 of 9
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 9 of 9
In the Field Health Services and Information System (FHSIS) in the Philippines, the monthly field health service activity report is a form used in which component of the FHSIS?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Tally report. In the FHSIS, the monthly field health service activity report is used to tally and summarize the health services provided within a specific period. It helps track the number of services rendered and monitor performance indicators. The other choices are incorrect because: B: Output report usually presents processed data in a structured format. C: Target/client list is a list of clients or individuals targeted for specific health services. D: Individual health record contains detailed health information of a specific individual, not a summary of services provided. In conclusion, the monthly field health service activity report in FHSIS is specifically designed for tallying and summarizing service activities, making option A the correct choice.
