Solution

The answer is "all of the above."

Explanation for each option:

  1. Involves going to the doctor's office four times: A two-step TB skin test typically requires four visits. The first visit is for the initial injection, the second visit is to read the result of the first test, the third visit is for the second injection, and the fourth visit is to read the result of the second test.

  2. Involves being injected intradermally twice: The two-step TB skin test involves two separate intradermal injections of the tuberculin purified protein derivative (PPD), one for each step of the test.

  3. All of the above: Since both of the above statements are correct, this option is also correct.

  4. Takes a minimum of 11 days: The two-step TB skin test process takes at least 11 days. The first test is read 48-72 hours after the initial injection, and the second test is administered 7-21 days after the first test, with the second reading occurring 48-72 hours after the second injection.

In summary, all the statements provided are correct, making "all of the above" the correct answer.
