Negative result is weakly associated with absence of the disease 10. Which of the following clinical reasoning tools is defined as evidence -based resource based on mathematical modeling to express the likelihood of a condition in select situations, settings, and/or patients?

Assessment and Clinical Decision -Making: Overview Downloaded by: Stuviaaa | Distribution of this document is illegal Answer Section MULTIPLE CHOICE 1. ANS: B Croskerry (2009) describes two major types of clinical diagnostic decision -making: intuitive and analytical. Intuitive decision -making (similar to Augenblink decision -making) is based on the experience and intuition of the clinician and is less reliable an d paired with fairly common errors. In contrast, analytical decision -making is based on careful consideration and has greater reliability with rare errors. PTS: 1 2. ANS: D To obtain adequate history, providers must be well organized, attentive to the patient’s verbal and nonverbal language, and able to accurately interpret the patient’s responses to questions. Rather than reading into the patient’s statements, they clarify any areas of uncertainty. PTS: 1 3. ANS: C Vital signs are part of the physical examination portion of patient assessment, not part of the health history. PTS: 1 4. ANS: D While performing the physical examination, the examiner must be able to differentiate between normal and abnormal findings, recall knowledge of a range of conditions, including their associated signs and symptoms, recognize how certain conditions affect the response to other conditions, and distinguish the relevance of varied abnormal findings. PTS: 1 5. ANS: C Sources for diagnostic statistics include textbooks, primary reports of research, and published meta -analyses. Another source of statistics, the one that has been most widely used and available for application to the reasoning process, is the e stimation based on a provider’s experience, although these are rarely accurate. Over the past decade, the availability of evidence on which to base clinical reasoning is improving, and there is an increasing expectation that clinical reasoning be based on scientific evidence. Evidence -based statistics are also increasingly being used to develop resources to facilitate clinical decision -making. PTS: 1 6. ANS: D To assist in clinical decision -making, a number of evidence -based resources have been developed to assist the clinician. Resources, such as algorithms and clinical practice guidelines, assist in clinical reasoning when properly applied.
