Certified Compliance And Ethics Professional (CCEP: Set
1-4) Certification Study Resources (+ 120 Q&A)What is
radiographic density? - ANSWERamount of blackness
on film
Normal blood pressure - ANSWER<120/<80 mmHg
Pre-hypertension - ANSWER120-139/80-89mmHg
Hypertension Stage 1 - ANSWER140-159/90-99mmHg
Hypertension Stage 2 - ANSWER>160/>100mmHg Red Flag refer out
Systolic Pressure - ANSWER-Pressure exerted on arterial walls during ventricular
contraction
-consumes 1/3 of cardiac cycle
In terms of valves what is the pressure difference during systole -
ANSWERventricular pressure> Arterial Pressure
AV valves are CLOSED
Blood fills pulmonic and systemic arteries
opens during pumping of aortic valves
Diastolic pressure - ANSWERPressure against arterial walls during ventricular
relaxation
consumes 2/3 of cardiac cycle
In terms of valves what is the pressure difference during diastole - ANSWERArterial
pressure> Ventricular Pressure
Ventricle fills with blood during this time period
Both AV valves (bicuspid/tricuspid) are OPEN
Normal Pulse Range - ANSWER60-100 BPM
Average Pulse - ANSWER74-76 BPM
Pulse Amplitude - ANSWER+3 Full and Bounding
+2 Normal
+1 Weak and Thready
0 Absent = Suggests arterial occlusion
Respiratory Rate - ANSWER10-20 Cycles/minute
Pulse: Respiratory Ratio - ANSWER4:1 Normal
,How to measure Height - ANSWER1.) Lift Pole
2.) Pt. steps up and faces away from scale (no shoes)
3.) Dr. Moves Head piece to top of head (improvise with clipboard if no top piece)
4.) Pt steps off and read the scale
Measuring Weight - ANSWERRemove shoes
Zero scale
Ask what patients recent weight was and if they have experienced a major change
patient steps onto scale
Temperature Range - ANSWER96.4-99.1 degrees
average is 98.6 degrees
Tympanic Membrane - ANSWERSeparates the external and internal middle ear
Protected by cerumen that is secreted to lubricate the canal
Eustachian Tubes - ANSWERProtects the Tympanic Membrane by equalizing pressure
on both sides because it has the ability to allow air passage from the nasopharynx
What nerve sends vibratory information generated by the organ of corti to the
cerebral cortex? - ANSWERCN VIII
cochlear branch of the vestibulocochlear nerve
Webers Test - ANSWER512 Hz Tuning fork
close eyes
place on top of head (glabella)
Ask if sound is heard equally in both ears
**** sound lateralizes to side of obstruction****
Rinnes Test - ANSWER512 Hz Tuning fork place on mastoid when they cant hear it
move to side of ear
air to bone conduction should be 2:1
do bilaterally
Rinne's Test results - ANSWER- Test= air conduction> bone conduction
+ Test= bone conduction> air conduction ( conductive hearing loss)
Decreased air conduction=conduction deafness
decreased air/bone conduction= nerve deafness
Snellen Eye Chart - ANSWERstand 20 feet away
provide a square of paper to cover eye
ask about glasses or contacts and report it
read lowest line thats comfortable if patient misses 3 go to line above
do color test and repeat with both eyes
report results 20/30 means patient can read line at 20 feet what most people can
read at 30 feet
20/30 or worse refer out
, Spinothalamic Tract - ANSWERSensory
Corticospinal Tract - ANSWERMotor
Function of Spinocerebellar tract - ANSWERUnconscious proprioception (lower
extremities)
Function of Anteriolateral Spinothalamic tract - ANSWERType 2 somatosensory
2 point descrimination, vibration, conscious proprioception
Function of Fasciculus cuneatus - ANSWER2 point descrimination and vibration
What mediates pain and temperature (types 3/4) - ANSWERLateral Spinothalamic
Tract
Sharp/dull test
What mediates soft touch - ANSWERAnterior spinothalamic tract
use cotton wisp
What mediates vibration (Type 2) - ANSWERPosterior Columns
128Hz Tuning Fork
