a. Mitral valve prolapse nn nn

ANSWER: n n 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.

ANSWER: n n B
Symptoms and signs consistent with allergy include itching, urticaria (hives), rash, swelling,

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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