Patho 6030 Exam 1: Marquette Questions With Complete
Solutions
Why do males suffer more from x-linked diseases?
They do not have another x to counter the effects
They will be affected by the disease d/t receiving the disease on
their x chromosome
_____ the rate at which patient's die from a condition?
Mortality
A Pt developed HTN w/o a known cause. What type of etiology
is this?
Idiopathic
_____ is the rate at which a Pt will have disability d/t a
condition
Morbidity
_____is a test that has a high predictive value that if the test is
positive, they have that condition
Sensitivity
_____ is a test that has a high predicative value that if the test is
negative, they do not have that condition
Specificity
What is predictive value?
,the ability of a test to predict presence of a condition w/in a
population
Incidence is
the number of new dx w/in a time period
A Pt gets a UTI while hospitalized d/t their catheter. What is the
etiology?
Nosocomial
A Pt is dx w/AIDs, what is the etiology of this?
Acquired
What is an example of secondary prevention?
Mammograms
What is an example of Tertiary prevention?
A cardiac rehab & coordinator and monitoring/guidance
What imbalance occurs as a result of drowning?
Respiratory acidosis
Epithelial tissue
o Attached to the basil membrane
o Line body external & internal surfaces
o Includes squamous (flat), cuboid & columnar cells
Connective tissue
o Supports body tissues
o Loose connective
o Adipose
, o Dense connective
o Types of Tissues: Muscle & Nerve
Regarding fluid and electrolyte activity, the major cation in the
extracellular fluid is:
Sodium
Fluid moves back into capillaries on the venous end because of
the following force:
Capillary colloid osmotic pressure
When hypernatremia occurs in the serum, body cells will:
shrink
A low serum K+ is dangerous for all patients, and especially
cardiac patients, because it can lead to:
Cardiac dysrhythmias
Of the 3 systems which work to maintain a normal pH level in
the blood, the following system works the fastest:
Blood buffer systems
Hypocalcemia often leads to the following classic sign in the
patient
Muscle tetany
The following statements identifies the differences in the
pathophysiology of respiratory acidosis versus metabolic
acidosis:
