It limits the kind of health services that the community can avail of. D. It serves as a basis for determining the success or failure of health services or actions. 2. Refers to the application of statistical methods & techniques to the study of vital facts, such as those concerning births, deaths, & illnesses A. Vital statistics C. health indicators B. Health status D. census 3. A list of information which would determine the health of a particular community like population CBR, CDR, IMR, MMR, etc. A. Health indicators C. health related problems B.

Is a rough measure of the force of mortality on the probability of dying A. CBR B. CDR C. MMR D. NDR 9. In obtaining the Proportion Mortality Rate (PMR), the following formula can be used A. No. of deaths / midyear population X 100 B. No, of deaths 50 years and above / midyear population X 100 C. No. of deaths from a special group / midyear population X 100 D. No. of deaths from a specific cause / total deaths X 100 10. It is referred as the killing power of a disease A. Attack rate B. Case fatality Rate C. Prevalence Rate D. Incidence Rate 11. The Attack Rate can be measured by using which of the following formula? A. No. of persons acquiring a disease / total no. of exposed to the disease X100 B. No. of new cases of a particular disease / midyear population X 100,000 C. No. of old & new cases of a certain disease / total no. of persons examined X 100 D. No. of deaths of a specific class / midyear population in a same specified class X 100,000 12. This measures the frequency of occurrence of the phenomena during a given period of time. It deals only with new cases A. Specific Death Rate B. Incidence rate C. Prevalence Rate D. Attack Rate 13. It is a source of data obtained from the National Statistics Office, the government agency charged with registering of vital facts of the country: A. Family Record B. Health Survey C.

Epidemiologic method This study source was downloaded by 100000828487167 from CourseHero.com on 10-07-2024 23:05:04 GMT -05:00 https://www.coursehero.com/file/235594134/MID-NCM-113docx/ 16. Covid is an example of disease occurrence as to pattern and distribution as: A. Sporadic B. Endemic C. Epidemic D. Pandemic 17. The common factors that contribute to Epidemic occurrence include: 1. Agent factors 2. Host factors 3. Environmental factors A. 1 & 2 B. 2 & 3 C. 1 & 3 D. 1, 2, & 3 18. A process of collecting primary data wherein the nurse uses observation of formal/informal community activities by sharing in the life of the community to determine community values, beliefs, norms, priorities, concerns, & power structures: A.

Epidemiology is the backbone of disease promotion. 2. Epidemiology searches for clues to causes of disease by observation of group habits, customs, & modes of life. 3. The ecologic triad of the multiple causation theory is the most useful epidemiologic concept since it highlights not only the agent’s & host’s roles in disease development but the environment also. 4. Herd immunity is the probability of a group or community of developing an epidemic upon the introduction of an infectious agent. 5. Immunity level is directly proportional to the susceptibility level. 6. The mere existence of a reservoir of infection is not enough to bring about the spread of infection. The infectious agent must be able to escape from the body of the reservoir so as to transmit to others. 7. The children, malnourished individuals, elderly, chronically ill, and post-op patients are considered to be immune-compromised. 8.
