ACEI/ARB use poses a ________ risk, especially with reduced GFR,
overdiuresis and/or under hydration. - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔hyperkalemia
Assessment of the optic disc is a component of the evaluation of which
cranial nerve? - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔Cranial Nerve II
The cardiac exam features in _________ include the presence of a
holosystolic murmur with a blowing quality that is typically Gr II-III/VI with a
predictable pattern of radiation to the left axilla - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔Mitral
regurgitation
What is the most common heart chamber hypertrophy? - 🧠ANSWER
✔✔Left ventricular hypertrophy
,What is the second most common heart chamber hypertrophy? -
🧠ANSWER ✔✔Left atrial hypertrophy
What is the most common stenotic heart valve? - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔Aortic
stenosis
What type of prevention focuses on preventing the health problem?
Examples: immunizations, counseling about safety, injury, and disease
prevention - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔Primary prevention
What type of prevention focuses on detecting disease in early,
asymptomatic, or preclinical state to minimize impact?
Examples: screening tests, such as BO check, mammography,
colonoscopy - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔Secondary prevention
What type of prevention focuses on minimizing negative disease-induced
outcomes?
Examples: In established disease, adjusting therapy to avoid further target
organ damage. Potentially viewed as a failure of primary prevention -
🧠ANSWER ✔✔Tertiary prevention

Hematocrit and RBC's? - 🧠ANSWER ✔✔Acute blood loss
Anemia of chronic disease (CKD, Lupus, chronic inflammatory diseases,
gastritis, menorrhagia, etc)
What are the most common etiology of microcytic (MCV <80 fL)
hypochromic anemia with elevated RDW in primary care? Small cells are
seen in this type of anemia due to insufficient hemoglobin. All values
decreased: HGB, HCT, RBC, MCV, MCHC ***RDW is increased***
Next test is ferritin for iron stores, add lead testing in younger children -

, (Microcytic, hypochromic with elevated RBC's and normal RDW) -
🧠ANSWER ✔✔- Alpha or Beta thalassemia minor
** at risk ethnic groups for alpha thalassemia minor: Asian, African ancestry
(AAA - Alpha, Asian, African)
*** at risk ethnic groups for beta thalassemia minor: African, Mediterranean,
Middle Eastern ancestry (BAMME - Beta, African, Mediterranean, Middle
Eastern)
- CONSIDERED A GENETIC Variation, not a disease
- Next test would be a hemoglobin electrophoresis for evaluation of
hemoglobin variants
