Match each patient presentation in the primary care setting with the single most appropriate, guideline-concordant preventive care intervention.
- 31-year-old patient presenting for a routine evaluation who has never been previously tested for HIVOrder one-time screening for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection
- 29-year-old pregnant patient at 28 weeks gestation, up to date on all childhood vaccinesAdminister the tetanus, diphtheria, and acellular pertussis (Tdap) vaccine
- 46-year-old asymptomatic patient with no family history of gastrointestinal malignancyOrder screening colonoscopy or fecal immunochemical test (FIT)
- 41-year-old patient with no significant past medical history who has never been tested for hepatitis COrder one-time hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibody screening
Answer
Each patient profile correctly maps to its specific, guideline-indicated preventive screening or immunization according to current USPSTF and ACIP age and risk criteria.
The correct pairings directly apply the most current, evidence-based recommendations from the USPSTF and ACIP. The 31-year-old requires one-time HIV screening; the pregnant patient requires a Tdap vaccine in the third trimester; the 46-year-old requires the initiation of colorectal cancer screening; and the 41-year-old requires one-time HCV screening.
