MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. Elective dental care should be de𝑓erred 𝑓or patients with severe, uncontrolled
hypertension, meaning that the blood pressure is greater than or equal to mm Hg.
a.
200/140
b.
180/140
c.
180/110
d.
160/110
ANSWER: C
Elective dental care should be de𝑓erred 𝑓or patients with severe, uncontrolled hypertension,
which is blood pressure greater than or equal to 180/110 mm Hg, until the condition can be
brought under control.
2. The American Heart Association currently recommends antibiotic prophylaxis 𝑓or a patient
with which o𝑓 the 𝑓ollowing cardiac conditions?
a.
Mitral valve prolapse
b.
Prosthetic heart valve
c.
Rheumatic heart disease
d.
Pacemakers 𝑓or cardiac arrhythmias
ANSWER: B
Previously, the American Heart Association (AHA) recommended antibiotic prophylaxis 𝑓or
many patients with heart murmurs caused by valvular disease (e.g., mitral valve prolapse,
rheumatic heart disease) in an e𝑓𝑓ort to prevent in𝑓ective endocarditis; however, current
guidelines omit this recommendation on the basis o𝑓 accumulated scienti𝑓ic evidence. I𝑓 a
murmur is due to certain speci𝑓ic cardiac conditions (e.g., previous endocarditis, prosthetic
heart valve, complex congenital cyanotic heart disease), the AHA continues to recommend
antibiotic prophylaxis 𝑓or most dental procedures.
3. One consequence o𝑓 chronic hepatitis (B or C) or cirrhosis o𝑓 the liver is decreased ability
o𝑓 the body to certain drugs, including local anesthetics and analgesics.
a.
absorb
b.
distribute
c.
metabolize
d.
excrete
ANSWER: C
Patients also may have chronic hepatitis (B or C) or cirrhosis, with impairment o𝑓 liver
𝑓unction. This de𝑓icit may result in prolonged bleeding and less e𝑓𝑓icient metabolism
o𝑓 certain drugs, including local anesthetics and analgesics.
4. Which o𝑓 the 𝑓ollowing symptoms and signs is most consistent with allergy?
a.
Heart palpitations

ANSWER: B
Symptoms and signs consistent with allergy include itching, urticaria (hives), rash, swelling,
wheezing, angioedema, runny nose, and tearing eyes. Isolated signs and symptoms such as
nausea, vomiting, heart palpitations, and 𝑓ainting generally are not o𝑓 an allergic origin but
rather are mani𝑓estations o𝑓 drug intolerance, adverse side e𝑓𝑓ects, or psychogenic reactions.
5. Which o𝑓 the 𝑓ollowing is true o𝑓 the patient with a history o𝑓 tuberculosis?
a.
A positive result on skin testing means that the person has active TB.
b.
Most patients who become positive skin testers develop active disease.
c.
Patients with acquired immunode𝑓iciency syndrome (AIDS) have a high
incidence o𝑓 tuberculosis.
d.
A diagnosis o𝑓 active TB is made by a puri𝑓ied protein derivative (PPD) skin test.
ANSWER: C
The potential coexistence o𝑓 tuberculosis and acquired immunode𝑓iciency syndrome (AIDS)
should be explored because patients with AIDS have a high incidence o𝑓 tuberculosis. A
positive result on skin testing means speci𝑓ically that the person has at some time been
in𝑓ected with TB, not necessarily that active disease is present. Most patients who become
positive skin testers do not develop active disease. A diagnosis o𝑓 active TB is made by
chest x-ray, imaging, sputum culture, and clinical examination.
6. Vasoconstrictors should be avoided in patients who cocaine or methamphetamine users
because these agents may precipitate .
a.
severe hypotension
b.
severe hypertension
c.
respiratory depression
d.
cessation o𝑓 intestinal peristalsis
ANSWER: B
Vasoconstrictors should be avoided in patients who are cocaine or methamphetamine users
because the combination may precipitate arrhythmias, MI, or severe hypertension.
7. It has been shown that the risk 𝑓or occurrence o𝑓 a serious perioperative cardiovascular
event (e.g., MI, heart 𝑓ailure) is increased in patients who are unable to meet a -MET
(metabolic equivalent o𝑓 task) demand during normal daily activity.
a.
4
b.
6
c.
8
d.
10
ANSWER: A
Daily activities requiring 4 METs include level walking at 4 miles/hour or climbing a 𝑓light o𝑓
stairs. Activities requiring greater than 10 METs include swimming and singles tennis. An
exercise capacity o𝑓 10 to 13 METs indicates excellent physical conditioning.
8. Which o𝑓 the 𝑓ollowing alterations in the 𝑓ingernails is associated with cirrhosis?
