Adolescent pre-college physical
Question 1 of 5
A nurse is performing a pre-college physical assessment on an adolescent. Which of the following immunizations should the nurse anticipate administering?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: Meningococcal polysaccharide vaccine. This vaccine is recommended for adolescents as it protects against meningococcal disease, which can be severe and potentially life-threatening. Adolescents are at higher risk for this infection due to factors like living in close quarters (e.g., college dorms). Influenza vaccine (
A) is recommended annually for adolescents, but it is not specific to pre-college physical assessments. BCG vaccine (
C) is primarily used for tuberculosis and is not routinely administered in the US. Pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (
D) is recommended for older adults and individuals with certain medical conditions, not typically for adolescents.
