MULTIPLE CHOICE

1. Elective dental care should be deferred for patients with severe,
uncontrolled hypertension, meaning that the blood pressure is greater
than or equal to mm Hg.
a.
200/140
b.
180/140
c.
180/110
d.
160/110
ANSWER: C
Elective dental care should be deferred for patients with severe,
uncontrolled hypertension, which is blood pressure greater than or
equal to 180/110 mm Hg, until the condition can be brought under
control.

2. The American Heart Association currently recommends antibiotic
prophylaxis for a patient with which of the following cardiac conditions?
a.
Mitral valve prolapse
b.
Prosthetic heart valve
c.
Rheumatic heart disease
d.
Pacemakers for cardiac arrhythmias
ANSWER: B
Previously, the American Heart Association (AHA) recommended antibiotic
prophylaxis for many patients with heart murmurs caused by valvular
disease (e.g., mitral valve prolapse, rheumatic heart disease) in an effort
to prevent infective endocarditis; however, current guidelines omit this
recommendation on the basis of accumulated scientific evidence. If a
murmur is due to certain specific cardiac conditions (e.g., previous
endocarditis, prosthetic heart valve, complex congenital cyanotic heart
disease), the AHA continues to recommend antibiotic prophylaxis for most
dental procedures.

3. One consequence of chronic hepatitis (B or C) or cirrhosis of the liver is
decreased ability of the body to certain drugs, including local
anesthetics and analgesics.
a.
absorb
b.
distribute
c.
metabolize
d.
excrete
ANSWER: C
Patients also may have chronic hepatitis (B or C) or cirrhosis, with
impairment of liver function. This deficit may result in prolonged
bleeding and less efficient metabolism of certain drugs, including
local anesthetics and analgesics.
