NR-507 Study Guide and practice questions 1. Types of immunity ch 7 & 8 a. Innate- natural epithelial barrier and inflammation the make innate resistance and protection pg. 191 Innate immunity includes two lines of defense: Natural barriers and inflammation. i. Natural barriers- physical, mechanical, and biochemical barriers at the body’s surfaces ii. Inflamation- associated with infection usually initiates an adaptive process that results in a long-term and very effective immunity to the infecting microorganism, referred to a adaptive, acquired or specific immunity. Use of the Epithelial cells with no memory function involved. b. Adaptive/ acquired- immune response or immunity, after innate and inflammation, Third line of defense, initiated when innate immune system signals the cells of adaptive immunity. There is a delay between primary exposure to antigen and maximum response, however there is immediate action against secondary exposure. Response is specific toward antigen. Involves T lymphocytes, B Lymphocytes, macrophages, and dentric cells. Specific immunologic memory by T and B lymphocytes i. Active (Acquired) -after natural exposure to an antigen or after immunization pg. 227 ii. Passive (Acquired)- preformed antibodies or t lymphocytes are transferred rom a donor to the recipient, maternal to fetus, or bone marrow transplant pg. 227 Questions  What type of immunity is produced when an immunoglobulin crosses the placenta?  Passive-aquired immunity  The mucosal secretions of the cervix secrete which immunoglobulin?  IgA  A student nurse asks the clinician which cells are most primary in a patient's immunity. What is the clinician's best answer?  Lymphocytes.  A nurse recalls humoral immunity is generated through the process of:  producing antibodies.  While taking a health history, if a person has resistance to a disease from natural exposure to an antigen, how would the nurse document this form of immunity?  Active acquired  What type of immunity will the nurse expect in an individual who is given a vaccine?  Active acquired immunity  A new mother asks the nurse about immunity of her newborn as she is breastfeeding. The nurse's response should include a discussion on which type of immunity?  Passive  The nurse has been explaining to a student nurse about the different types of immunity. Which response indicates that the student nurse has a good understanding of adaptive immunity?  Both the humoral and cell-mediated immunity develop memory cells  Cancer cells and virus-infected body cells can be killed before activation of adaptive immunity by  natural killer cells  The primary immune response ________.  has a lag period while B cells proliferate and differentiate into plasma cells  Which of the following is true about the number of binding sites per functional antibody unit?  IgM contains 10 binding sites.  Which cell of the immune system is absolutely required for an adaptive immune response?  Helper T cell  The adaptive immune system involves three major cell types: antigen-presenting cells, T cells, which constitute cell- mediated immunity, and B cells, which govern humoral immunity.  The nurse understands that the function of IgG is as what?  A bond with target cells and a promoter of phagocytosis  The nurse understands that which type of immunity is the longest acting?  Natural active  Natural killer cells are specialized lymphocytes that are one of the major parts of which immunity?  Innate
