Signs and symptoms of an acute abdomen include invol- untary
guarding, rebound tenderness, boardlike abdomen, and a positive obtu-
rator and psoas sign. A positive obturator sign occurs when pain is
elicted by internal rotation of the right hip from 90 degrees hip/knee
flexion. The psoas sign is positive when pain occurs with passive
extension of the thigh while the patient is lying on his/her side with
knees extended, or when pain occurs with active flexion of his/her thigh
at the hip.

⩥ A 28-year-old student is seen in the school health clinic with
complaints of a hacking cough that is productive of small amounts of
sputum and a runny nose. He does not take any medications, denies any
allergies, and has no significant medical history. Physical examination
reveals a low-grade temperature of 99.9 degrees Fahrenheit, respirations
of 16/min, a pulse of 90 beats per minute, and diffuse fine crackles in the
base of the lungs. A chest radiograph (x-ray) shows diffuse infiltrates on
the lower lobe of the right lung. The total white blood cell count is
10,500/uL. What is the most likely diagnosis?
A) Streptococcal pneumonia
B) Mycoplasma pneumonia
, C) Acute bronchitis
D) Legionnaires disease. Answer: B) Mycoplasma pneumonia
Mycoplasma pneumonia is the organism most com- monly seen in
children and young adults. It is easily spread from droplets, from
sneezing and coughing, in close proximity. Diagnosis is based on
symptoms and x-ray results of infiltrates in lower lobes.
⩥ A 39-year-old migrant worker presents to the clinic 2.5 days after a
purified protein derivative (PPD) test. What minimum size of induration
would be considered posi- tive for this patient?
A) 3 mm B) 5 mm C) 10 mm D) 15 mm. Answer: C) 10 mm
The PPD is administered on the volar aspect of the lower arm and read
48 hours after the test is given. The PPD result must have induration and
measure 10 mm or greater to be positive in a low-risk patient. Induration
(firmness with palpation) must be present. If the site has erythema but no
induration, result would be negative. Color is not important.
