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

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

m m m m m m m m m m m
a. Yellowing
