Answer:

What are eponyms and how can you use them to find codes in the Alphabetic Index of the CPT?  Provide an example

They are the disease, anatomical structure, clinical signs, syndromes, surgeries or technique whose name comes from that of the person who discovered or described it for the first time.

The CPT has a section of eponimos whereby the search is limited to finding the object of interest in that section.

An example of an eponym is Addsion keloid

Which method of finding a main term in the Alphabetic Index do you find easiest to use?  Explain why.

 The keyword because it allows you to find all the information related to the topic of interest

Answer:

if a nurse who provides weekly care in a homeless shelter has unknowingly inhaled airborne Mycobacterium tuberculosis and has subsequently developed latent tuberculosis infection then it is TRUE that "The nurse is likely asymptomatic."

Explanation:

for us to be able to understand this question we need to know what the key terms are such as;

Mycobacterium tuberculosis(M. tb) this is a species of pathogenic bacteria in the family Mycobacteriaceae and it causes tuberculosis. It was First discovered by Robert Koch, M. tuberculosis in 1882.

Latent tuberculosis infection (LTBI) this is a state of persistent immune response to stimulation by Mycobacterium tuberculosis antigens without evidence of clinically manifested active TB. this is a state where someone is infected but the symptoms do not show.

Asymptomatic : this simply means showing no symptoms of the disease.

so by all the basis above we can conclude that the nurse is likely asymptomatic.
