MULTIPLE CHOICE g




1. Electivedental care should bedeferred for patients with severe, uncontrolled hypertension,
g g g g g g g g g g g




gmeaning that the blood pressure is greater than or equal to
g g g g g g g g g g mm Hg. g




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




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




which is blood pressure greater than or equal to 180/110 mm Hg, until the condition can be
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g




brought under control.
g g g




2. The American Heart Association currentlyrecommends antibiotic prophylaxis for a patient
g g g g g g g g g g




with which of the following cardiac conditions?
g g g g g g g




a. Mitral valve prolapse g g




b. Prosthetic heart valve g g




c. Rheumatic heart disease g g




d. Pacemakers for cardiac arrhythmias g g g




ANSWER: B g




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




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




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




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




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




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




prophylaxis for most dental procedures.
g g g g g




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




body to
g g certain drugs, including local anesthetics and analgesics. g g g g g g




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




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




function. This deficit may result in prolonged bleeding and less efficient metabolism of
g g g g g g g g g g g g g




certain drugs, including local anesthetics and analgesics.
g g g g g g g




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




a. Heart palpitations g




b. Itching

ANSWER: B g




Symptoms and signs consistent with allergy include itching, urticaria g g g g g g g g




g(hives), rash, swelling, wheezing, angioedema, runny nose, and tearing eyes.
g g g g g g g g g




gIsolated signs and symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, heart palpitations,
g g g g g g g g g




gand fainting generally are not of an allergic origin but rather are
g g g g g g g g g g g




gmanifestations of drug intolerance, adverse side effects, or psychogenic g g g g g g g g




greactions.

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




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




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




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




high incidence of tuberculosis.
g g g g




d. A diagnosis of active TB is made by a purified protein derivative
g g g g g g g g g g




(PPD) skin test.
g g g




ANSWER: C
The potential coexistence of tuberculosis and acquired immunodeficiency
g g g g g g g




syndrome (AIDS) should be explored because patients with AIDS have
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g




a high incidence of tuberculosis. A positive result on skin testing means
g g g g g g g g g g g g




specifically that the person has at some time been infected with TB,
g g g g g g g g g g g g g




gnot necessarily that active disease is present. Most patients who become
g g g g g g g g g g




gpositive skin testers do not develop active disease. A diagnosis of
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g




active TB is made by chest x-ray, imaging, sputum culture, and clinical
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g




examination.
g




6. Vasoconstrictors should be avoided in patients who cocaine or g g g g g g g g




methamphetamine users because these agents may precipitate
g g g g g g g .
a. severe hypotension g g




b. severe hypertension g g




c. respiratory depression g




d. cessation of intestinal peristalsis g g g g g g




ANSWER: B
Vasoconstrictors should be avoided in patients who are cocaine or g g g g g g g g g




methamphetamine users because the combination may precipitate arrhythmias,
g g g g g g g g




MI, or severe hypertension.
g g g g




7. It has been shown that the risk for occurrence of a serious perioperative
cardiovascular
g event (e.g., MI, heart failure) is increased in patients who are
g g




unable to meet a -MET (metabolic equivalent of task) demand during
normal daily
g g g activity.
a. 4
b. 6
c. 8
d. 10
ANSWER: A
Daily activities requiring 4 METs include level walking at 4 miles/hour or
g g g g g g g g g g g




climbing a flight of stairs. Activities requiring greater than 10 METs include
g g g g g g g g g g g g




swimming and singles tennis. An exercise capacity of 10 to 13 METs
g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g g




indicates
g




excellent physical conditioning. g g g g
