closure glaucoma - ANSWER//sudden blockage of the
aqueous humor increased intraocular pressure Acute
Rhinosinusitis - ANSWER//inflammation of the mucosal
lining of nasal passages, lasting up to 4 weeks, caused by
allergens Acute Bacterial Rhinosinusitis -
ANSWER//secondary bacterial infection, usually following
viral URI Diseases caused by S. pneumoniae -

Pneumonia Sinusitis Diseases caused by H. influenza -
ANSWER//COMPS Conjunctivitis Otitis media Meningitis
Pneumonia Sinusitis Common features of ABRS -
ANSWER//fever and symptoms duration of more than 10
days maxillary toothache initial symptom improvement and
then worsening of symptoms (double sickening) cacosmia
(sense of bad odor in the nose) unilateral facial pain 7 day
tx is the best Tx for ABRS in adults - ANSWER//Initial
therapy: amoxicillin or amox-clav Beta-lactam allergy: No
anaphylaxis (cefdinir, cefpodoxime, cefuroxime)
anaphylaxis (levo, moxi, doxycycline) *macrolide abx
(azithro, clarithro, erythro) and TMX-SMX (Bactrim) not
recommended in ABRS tx Doxycycline -
ANSWER//pregnancy risk: Cat D Resp fluroquinolones -

ANSWER//no lateralization AC>BC Sensorineural hearing
loss - ANSWER//lateralization to good ear (sound is heard
louder in the normal ear) AC>BC Conductive hearing loss
,- ANSWER//lateralization to bad ear (sound is heard
louder in the bad ear) BC>AC Allergic rhinitis -
ANSWER//inflammatory, IgE mediated disease due to
genetic and environmental interactions and characterized
by nasal congestion, rhinorrhea, sneezing, intraocular
and/or nasal itching Allergic rhinitis treatment -
ANSWER//1st line- avoid allergen controller - intranasal
corticosteroids (fluticasone propionate (flonase),
triamcinolone)- number of days prior to symptom relief -
intranasal antihistamine (azelastine)- rapid symptom relief
Reliever therapy - 2nd gen PO antihistamine (loratadine
(clairtin), cetirizine (zyrtec) - ocular antihistamines- helpful
in managing allergic conjunctivitis signs and symptoms

age >55 years at time of diagnosis) Risk reduction for
SCC oral cancer - ANSWER//HPV-9 immunization
avoidance/cessation of tobacco use Presentation of SCC
oral cancer - ANSWER//painless, ulcerating oral lesions,
usually presents for many months prior to presenting
clinically adjacent lymphadenopathy= immobile, nontender
nodes usually >1 cm in diameter Macular degeneration -
ANSWER//thickening, sclerotic changes in retinal
basement membrane complex painless vision changes

loss loss of 8th cranial nerve sensitivity primary prevention
- ANSWER//immunizations, counseling about safety, injury
and disease prevention preventing the health problem, the
most cost-effective form of healthcare secondary
prevention - ANSWER//screening tests, such as BP check,
mammo, colonoscopy detecting disease in early
asymptomatic, or preclinical state to minimize its impact
tertiary prevention - ANSWER//in established disease,
adjusting therapy to avoid further target organ damage.
potentially viewed as a failure of primary prevention
minimizing negative disease induced outcomes active

antibodies from an individual who is immune to a
pathogen to another individual. onset of protection- usually
within hours of dose duration of protection- usually time-
