NBME Form 11
1. Heat exhaustion exercise intolerance, increased core body temperatures, and the absence of
neurologic disturbances
2. Heat stroke is characterized by hyperthermia, AMS or neurologic deficits, and variable
physical signs and symptoms depending on severity
3. Stimulus induced or Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease
spontaneous my-
oclonus is specific
for?
4. What is the first line AV nodal blockage with adenosine
treatment for narrow
complex SVT?
5. Bradford Hill Criteria temporal relationship, strength of association, dose-response relationship,
for Causality Consistency, biological plossibility, Consideration of alternate explanations,
experiment, Specificity, coherence
6. BCG and PPD test BCG effects wanes 5 years after vaccination
7. Diagnosis of empye- Thoracentesis: frank pus or cloudy fluid in pleural space. Pleural fluid: leuko-
ma cytosis, pH <7.20, glucose <60 mg/dL, high LDH, elevated protein, maybe
infectious organisms.
Recommendation of treatment is with chest tube placement
8. What is the initial ergonomic changes to relieve the pressure ( Ex. Wrist pad for keyboard) or
management of mild splinting
carpal tunnel syn-
drome?
9. What are the risk fac- Advanced age and obstructive shock
tors for in-hospital
, NBME Form 11
mortality in a patient
with a PE?
10. Pediatric Hyperten- measurement of serum renin and aldosterone, serum and urine
sion metanephrinphrines, and renal US with doppler to assess the patency of
the renal arteries
11. What is a distinguish- Miosis
ing feature of opioid
intoxication?
12. CLABSI central line associated blood stream infection workup includes drawing
blood from the CVC and another place while starting IV antibiotics
13. Qualitative study used to study social phenomena or how individuals perceive their disease,
barriers to pursuing treatment and social stigma surrounding their disease
14. When to start MEN age 35
screening with WOMEN age 45
serum lipid levels? You can start earlier if there is increased risk factors for CVD including HTN,
Type 2 DM and a family history
15. Midgut volvulus pre- bilious vomiting, abdominal distention, and pain
sentation in an infant
Diagnosis is confirmed via an upper GI series
16. Treatment of OA of
the knee
