The term "prevention" means, avoiding the occurrence of a disease or a disorder before it actually occurs. They are known as “prophylactic measures.”
2). Examples of prevention:
Primary prevention includes the preventive measures necessary to avoid the occurrence of disease, while maintaining healthy life. Eg: Vaccination against cholera is a primary prevention technique.
Secondary prevention includes the activities of early diagnosis and providing optimum treatment, while preventing or limiting the secondary consequences of the disease.
Tertiary prevention is the last level of health promotion, which includes long term medication to rehabilitate the body, efficient treatment approaches and patient education. This is more applicable to diseases that cannot be reversed (Eg: diabetes and hypertension). The main focus of tertiary prevention is to limit the detrimental consequences of the disease, while trying to maintain the normal health.
Maintaining hygiene is another example of preventive strategy for infectious diseases.
