MULTIPLE CHOICE oo




1. Elective dental care should be deferred for patients with severe, uncontrolled
oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo



hypertension, meaning that the blood pressure is greater than or equal tomm Hg.
oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo



a. 200/140
b. 180/140
c. 180/110
d. 160/110
ANSWER: C oo



Elective dental care should be deferred for patients with severe, uncontrolled
oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo



hypertension, which is blood pressure greater than or equal to 180/110 mm Hg, until the
oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo



condition can be brought under control.
oo oo oo oo oo oo




2. The American Heart Association currently recommends antibiotic prophylaxis for a
oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo



patient with which of the following cardiac conditions?
oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo



a. Mitral valve prolapse oo oo



b. Prosthetic heart valve oo oo



c. Rheumatic heart disease oo oo



d. Pacemakers for cardiac arrhythmias oo oo oo




ANSWER: B oo



Previously, the American Heart Association (AHA) recommended antibiotic prophylaxis for
oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo



many patients with heart murmurs caused by valvular disease (e.g., mitral valve prolapse,
oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo



rheumatic heart disease) in an effort to prevent infective endocarditis; however, current
oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo



guidelines omit this recommendation on the basis of accumulated scientific evidence. If a
oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo



murmur is due to certain specific cardiac conditions (e.g., previous endocarditis, prosthetic
oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo



heart valve, complex congenital cyanotic heart disease), the AHA continues to recommend
oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo



antibiotic prophylaxis for most dental procedures.
oo oo oo oo oo oo




3. One consequence of chronic hepatitis (B or C) or cirrhosis of the liver is decreased ability
oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo



of the body to
oo oo oo oo certain drugs, including local anesthetics and analgesics.
oo oo oo oo oo oo



a. absorb
b. distribute
c. metabolize
d. excrete
ANSWER: C oo



Patients also may have chronic hepatitis (B or C) or cirrhosis, with impairment of
oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo



liver function. This deficit may result in prolonged bleeding and less efficient
oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo



metabolism of certain drugs, including local anesthetics and analgesics.
oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo




4. Which of the following symptoms and signs is most consistent with allergy?
oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo



a. Heart palpitations oo

ANSWER: B oo



Symptoms and signs consistent with allergy include itching, urticaria (hives), rash, swelling,
oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo



wheezing, angioedema, runny nose, and tearing eyes. Isolated signs and symptoms such as
oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo



nausea, vomiting, heart palpitations, and fainting generally are not of an allergic origin but
oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo



rather are manifestations of drug intolerance, adverse side effects, or psychogenic reactions.
oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo




5. Which of the following is true of the patient with a history of tuberculosis?
oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo



a. A positive result on skin testing means that the person has active TB.
oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo



b. Most patients who become positive skin testers develop active disease.
oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo



c. Patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) have a high
oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo



incidence of tuberculosis.
oo oo oo



d. A diagnosis of active TB is made by a purified protein derivative (PPD) skin test.
oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo




ANSWER: o o C
The potential coexistence of tuberculosis and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome
oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo



(AIDS) should be explored because patients with AIDS have a high incidence of
oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo



tuberculosis. A positive result on skin testing means specifically that the person has at
oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo



some time been infected with TB, not necessarily that active disease is present. Most
oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo



patients who become positive skin testers do not develop active disease. A diagnosis of
oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo



active TB is made by chest x-ray, imaging, sputum culture, and clinical examination.
oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo




6. Vasoconstrictors should be avoided in patients who cocaine or methamphetamine oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo



users because these agents may precipitate
oo oo oo oo oo oo .
a. severe hypotension oo



b. severe hypertension oo



c. respiratory depression oo



d. cessation of intestinal peristalsis oo oo oo




ANSWER: B oo



Vasoconstrictors should be avoided in patients who are cocaine or methamphetamine users
oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo



because the combination may precipitate arrhythmias, MI, or severe hypertension.
oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo




7. It has been shown that the risk for occurrence of a serious perioperative cardiovascular
oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo



event (e.g., MI, heart failure) is increased in patients who are unable to meet a -MET

oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo



stairs. Activities requiring greater than 10 METs include swimming and singles tennis. An
oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo oo
