1The Fachlehrplan Gesundheit requires students to derive the characteristics of health from the WHO definition. How does the WHO define health?
A.The absence of disease and infirmity
B.A state of complete physical, mental and social well-being, and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity
C.The ability to work and earn a living without medical restriction
D.A measurable state in which all laboratory values lie within the reference range
Explanation: The WHO constitution (1946/1948) defines health as 'a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity'. The decisive feature is that health is defined positively and multidimensionally (physical, mental, social), not just as the negation of illness.
2A patient's medical record states: 'Ätiologie: chronic alcohol consumption'. What does the term Ätiologie denote?
A.The study of the causes of a disease
B.The step-by-step development of a disease in the body
C.The prediction of the further course of a disease
D.The functional disturbances a disease produces in organs
Explanation: Ätiologie (aetiology) is the study of the causes of disease — it answers the question 'What triggered the illness?'. Here, chronic alcohol consumption is named as the causal factor, for example in liver cirrhosis.
3A textbook describes how Helicobacter pylori colonises the gastric mucosa, weakens the protective mucus layer and thereby allows acid to damage the epithelium, leading to gastritis. Which basic medical term does this description represent?
A.Diagnose
B.Prognose
C.Pathogenese
D.Intervention
Explanation: Pathogenese describes the stepwise mechanism by which a disease arises and progresses once a causal agent acts. The passage traces colonisation → weakened mucus barrier → acid damage → gastritis, which is exactly a pathogenetic sequence.
4Which book of the German Sozialgesetzbuch (SGB) regulates the statutory health insurance (gesetzliche Krankenversicherung)?
A.SGB III
B.SGB V
C.SGB IX
D.SGB XI
Explanation: SGB V (Fünftes Buch Sozialgesetzbuch), in force since 1 January 1989, contains the entire body of law on the gesetzliche Krankenversicherung (GKV) — membership, contributions, the benefit catalogue and the relationships with providers.
5A nurse is injured by a needlestick while working on a hospital ward and requires treatment. Which branch of the German social insurance system is the responsible cost bearer, and in which SGB is it regulated?
A.Gesetzliche Krankenversicherung — SGB V
B.Gesetzliche Unfallversicherung — SGB VII
C.Soziale Pflegeversicherung — SGB XI
D.Gesetzliche Rentenversicherung — SGB VI
Explanation: An accident occurring during work is an Arbeitsunfall. The gesetzliche Unfallversicherung, regulated in SGB VII and carried by the Berufsgenossenschaften/Unfallkassen, covers prevention, treatment, rehabilitation and compensation for work accidents and occupational diseases.
6A GKV-insured patient receives physiotherapy on prescription and does not pay the practice for the treatment itself; the Krankenkasse settles directly with the provider. Which structural principle of the GKV does this illustrate?
A.Kostenerstattungsprinzip
B.Äquivalenzprinzip
C.Sachleistungsprinzip
D.Subsidiaritätsprinzip
Explanation: Under the Sachleistungsprinzip (benefits-in-kind principle) of the GKV, insured persons receive services directly and the Krankenkasse settles with the provider. The patient does not have to advance the cost and claim it back.
7In the GKV, two employees with very different incomes but the same illness receive exactly the same treatment entitlement, while their contributions differ according to income. Which principle does this express?
A.Solidaritätsprinzip
B.Äquivalenzprinzip
C.Kausalitätsprinzip
D.Versorgungsprinzip
Explanation: The Solidaritätsprinzip means contributions depend on ability to pay (a percentage of income up to the Beitragsbemessungsgrenze), while benefits depend only on medical need. The healthy support the sick, higher earners support lower earners, and members with dependants are covered through beitragsfreie Familienversicherung.
8Which body decides in binding directives (Richtlinien) which examination and treatment methods are covered by the benefit catalogue of the statutory health insurance in Germany?
A.Bundesministerium für Gesundheit (BMG)
B.Robert Koch-Institut (RKI)
C.Gemeinsamer Bundesausschuss (G-BA)
D.Bundesinstitut für Arzneimittel und Medizinprodukte (BfArM)
Explanation: The Gemeinsame Bundesausschuss (G-BA) is the highest decision-making body of the joint self-administration (gemeinsame Selbstverwaltung). Through legally binding Richtlinien it defines the GKV Leistungskatalog — which methods, medicines, remedies and aids are reimbursed — and sets quality-assurance requirements.
9The German health system is described as being organised through 'gemeinsame Selbstverwaltung'. Which statement best characterises this structure?
A.The federal government directly operates hospitals and employs office-based physicians as civil servants
B.The state sets the legal framework, while corporations of payers and providers regulate the details of care themselves within it
C.Each Bundesland independently defines its own benefit catalogue for statutory health insurance
D.Private insurance companies negotiate the statutory benefit catalogue with the federal parliament
Explanation: In gemeinsame Selbstverwaltung the legislator sets only the framework in law (above all SGB V). Within it, self-governing corporations under public law — Krankenkassen and their associations, Kassenärztliche Vereinigungen, and the Deutsche Krankenhausgesellschaft — jointly regulate the concrete organisation of care, above all through the G-BA.
10Which question is characteristic of the salutogenic model developed by Aaron Antonovsky?
A.Which pathogens and risk factors cause a specific disease?
B.What keeps people healthy despite exposure to stressors?
C.Which drug achieves the fastest cure for a given diagnosis?
D.How can hospital treatment costs be reduced most effectively?
Explanation: Salutogenesis reverses the classical pathogenic question. Antonovsky asked not what makes people ill but what keeps them healthy, viewing health and illness as a continuum (Gesundheits-Krankheits-Kontinuum) on which resistance resources and the Kohärenzgefühl move a person towards the healthy pole.
