Mrs. Doh presents to your office with her 7-year-old son. Because of his religion, he has not had
routine immunizations. You are concerned that he has mumps. Which of the following would
help differentiate mumps from cervical adenitis?
A. Palpating the angle of the jaw
B. Palpating enlarged lymph nodes
C. Noting painful lymph nodes
D. Noting swelling of the face - Answer>>> A: CorrectMumps, epidemic parotitis, is
characterized by a somewhat painful swelling of the parotid glands unilaterally or bilaterally and,
occasionally, by swelling and tenderness of the other salivary glands along the mandible. The
swelling can obscure the angle of the jaw and may appear on inspection as a cervical adenitis. On
palpation, however, the two are easily distinguished. A cervical adenitis does not ordinarily
obscure the angle of the jaw. Your fingers can separate the node from the angle so that you can
feel the hard sharpness of the bone, a finding generally not associated with parotid swelling.
Mr. Lukas is a 48-year-old patient with diabetes and hypertension. Which heart sound heard on
auscultation suggests a pathologic condition and requires additional evaluation?
A. Split S1
B. Split S2
C. Soft S3
D. Loud S4 - Answer>>> D: CorrectS3 and S4 may or may not be present. Their absence is not
an unusual finding, and their presence does not necessarily indicate a pathologic condition. Thus,
,evaluate S3 and S4 in relation to other sounds and events in the cardiac cycle. A loud S4 always
suggests a pathologic condition and deserves additional evaluation.
Mr. Harold is a 47-year-old patient who presents to your office with a complaint of fatigue. The
examiner is palpating the superior superficial inguinal lymph nodes on Mr. Harold. Where is the
examiner palpating?
A. At the lateral aspect of the groin
B. Just above the groin along the base of the pelvic bone
C. Between the femoral artery and femoral vein
D. In the groin over the inguinal canals - Answer>>> D: CorrectLymph nodes usually occur in
groups. Superficial nodes are located in subcutaneous connective tissues, and deeper nodes lie
beneath the fascia of muscles and within the various body cavities. The superior superficial
inguinal (femoral) nodes are close to the surface over the inguinal canals. The inferior superficial
inguinal nodes lie deeper in the groin.
A mother tells the examiner that her 2-year-old child has a cough that "sounds just like a bark."
Given this history, which other findings should the examiner anticipate with respiratory
examination?
A. Wheezing and coarse crackles bilaterally
B. Labored breathing and inspiratory stridor
C. Hyperresonance with percussion
D. Productive, blood-tinged, or "rusty" sputum - Answer>>> B: CorrectCroup or laryngotracheal
bronchitis is a syndrome that generally results from infection with a variety of viral agents,
particularly the parainfluenza viruses occurring most often in children from about 1½ to 3 years
of age. Objective data include labored breathing, retraction, hoarseness, barking cough, and
inspiratory stridor.
, As the chest of a newborn is examined, bowel sounds are auscultated in the chest. What is the
significance of this finding?
A. This is a normal finding in newborns.
B. This is an abnormal, but benign, finding in children until 2 years of age.
C. This is abnormal and possibly indicates an enlarged liver.
D. This is abnormal and possibly indicates a diaphragmatic hernia. - Answer>>> D: CorrectThe
result of an imperfectly structured diaphragm occurs once in slightly more than 2000 live births.
It is suspected if gastrointestinal gurgling sounds are persistently heard in the chest, but wide
transmission of these sounds can sometimes be deceptive.
On palpation of an older individual's skin, you observe "tenting." Which of the following would
be most appropriate for you to do in regard to this condition?
A. Have the individual further evaluated for dehydration.
B. Refer the client for punch biopsy of the skin.
C. Inform the individual to be especially vigilant in self-screening for skin cancer.
D. Observe the skin carefully for other manifestations of loss of skin integrity. - Answer>>> A:
CorrectIn the older individual, the skin often appears to hang loosely on the bony frame as a
result of a general loss of elasticity, loss of underlying adipose tissue, and years of gravitational
pull. You may observe tenting of the skin when testing for turgor. Tenting can be indicative of
dehydration. How quickly the tent disappears provides a clue to the degree of dehydration
