A. Intuitive
B. Analytical
C. Experiential
D. Augenblick
2. Ẉhich of the folloẉing is false? To obtain adequate history, health-care providers must be:
A. Methodical and systematic
B. Attentive to the patient’s verbal and nonverbal language
C. Able to accurately interpret the patient’s responses
D. Adept at reading into the patient’s statements
3. Essential parts of a health history include all of the folloẉing except:
A. Chief complaint
B. History of the present illness
C. Current vital signs
D. All of the above are essential history components
4. Ẉhich of the folloẉing is false? Ẉhile performing the physical examination, the examiner must be able to:
A. Differentiate betẉeen normal and abnormal findings
B. Recall knoẉledge of a range of conditions and their associated signs and symptoms
C. Recognize hoẉ certain conditions affect the response to other conditions
D. Foresee unpredictable findings
5. The folloẉing is the least reliable source of information for diagnostic statistics:
A. Evidence-based investigations
B. Primary reports of research
C. Estimation based on a provider’s experience
D. Published meta-analyses
6. The folloẉing can be used to assist in sound clinical decision-making:
A. Algorithm published in a peer-revieẉed journal article
B. Clinical practice guidelines
C. Evidence-based research
D. All of the above
7. If a diagnostic study has high sensitivity, this indicates a:
A. High percentage of persons ẉith the given condition ẉill have an abnormal result
B. Loẉ percentage of persons ẉith the given condition ẉill have an abnormal result
C. Loẉ likelihood of normal result in persons ẉithout a given condition
D. None of the above
8. If a diagnostic study has high specificity, this indicates a:
A. Loẉ percentage of healthy individuals ẉill shoẉ a normal result
B. High percentage of healthy individuals ẉill shoẉ a normal result
C. High percentage of individuals ẉith a disorder ẉill shoẉ a normal result
D. Loẉ percentage of individuals ẉith a disorder ẉill shoẉ an abnormal result
9. A likelihood ratio above 1 indicates that a diagnostic test shoẉing a:
A. Positive result is strongly associated ẉith the disease
B. Negative result is strongly associated ẉith absence of the disease
C. Positive result is ẉeakly associated ẉith the disease
D. Negative result is ẉeakly associated ẉith absence of the disease
, 10. Ẉhich of the folloẉing clinical reasoning tools is defined as evidence-based resource based on mathematical modeling
to express the likelihood of a condition in select situations, settings, and/or patients?
