- True
2. What are the most common symptoms caused by tachyarryhthmias
- Palpitations
3. For women with known cad and diabetes, which is the most appropriate to
assess CAD risk
- ETT with imaging
4. Of the following, which is the best answer when asked about the advantage
of echocardiogram exercise testing over thallium stress testing
- Results are available more quickly
5. You patient has uncomplicated pyelonephritis. In deciding your
recommended treatment, you consider the most common pathogenic reason
for this diagnosis. What pathogen accounts for the majority of
pyelonephritis?
- E coli
6. What purpose does the principle of fidelity serve
- Ensures that providers honor their committement to the patient
7. In CAD after both systolic and diastolic dysfunction have occurred. The
typical pattern of chest pain and related EKG changes occur. During an ekg
you should expect to see ST segment and T wave changes that are central to
demonstration of ischemia occurring relatively late in the ischemic cascade
is this true or false
- True
8. The leads on the ECG showing ischemic changes during or immediately
after an ETT can correlate roughly to the culprit artery or arteries with
significant CAD. Is this true or false
- True
, 9. Skin cancer is the most common malignant neoplasms in males in the us .
What is the second leading cause of cancer deaths in men greater than 50
years of age
- Prostate cancer
10.What ech changes can reduce the specificity of the ETT
- Paced rhythm and resting bundle branch blocks.
11.You have confirmed that your patient does indeed have an abdominal aortic
aneurysm. In teaching your patient about symptoms to report immediately to
the vascular surgeon you instruct the patient to report which of the following
- Back pain or flank pain
12.Which is one of the common causes of a saccular abdominal aneurysm
- Trauma
13.The diagnostic accuracy of stress testing is decreased among women
compared to men for what reasons

- High prevalence specific diseases
15.You receive a report back on the suspected abdominal aortic aneurysm for
your patient. It confirms your suspicion of AAA. The report describes the
aneurysm as a symmetric weakness of the entire circumference of the aorta.
You know that this form of aneurysm is referred to as what kind of
aneurysm
- Fusiform

patient with suspected cardiovascular risk. This patient has known resting
wall motion abnormalities. Why would this not be the best test to assess this
patient’s cardiac risk
