MULTIPLE CHOICE n
1. Elective dental care should be deferred for patients with severe, uncontrolled hypertension,
n n n n n n n n n n n
meaning that the blood pressure is greater than or equal to
n n n n n n n n n n n mm Hg. n
a. 200/140
b. 180/140
c. 180/110
d. 160/110
ANSWER: C n
Elective dental care should be deferred for patients with severe, uncontrolled hypertension,
n n n n n n n n n n n
which is blood pressure greater than or equal to 180/110 mm Hg, until the condition can be
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n
brought under control.
n n n
2. The American Heart Association currently recommends antibiotic prophylaxis for a patient
n n n n n n n n n n
with which of the following cardiac conditions?
n n n n n n n
a. Mitral valve prolapse n n
b. Prosthetic heart valve n n
c. Rheumatic heart disease n n
d. Pacemakers for cardiac arrhythmias n n n
ANSWER: B n
Previously, the American Heart Association (AHA) recommended antibiotic prophylaxis for
n n n n n n n n n
many patients with heart murmurs caused by valvular disease (e.g., mitral valve prolapse,
n n n n n n n n n n n n n
rheumatic heart disease) in an effort to prevent infective endocarditis; however, current
n n n n n n n n n n n n
guidelines omit this recommendation on the basis of accumulated scientific evidence. If a
n n n n n n n n n n n n n
murmur is due to certain specific cardiac conditions (e.g., previous endocarditis, prosthetic heart
n n n n n n n n n n n n n
valve, complex congenital cyanotic heart disease), the AHA continues to recommend antibiotic
n n n n n n n n n n n n
prophylaxis for most dental procedures.

3. One consequence of chronic hepatitis (B or C) or cirrhosis of the liver is decreased ability of the
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n
body to
n n certain drugs, including local anesthetics and analgesics. n n n n n n
a. absorb
b. distribute
c. metabolize
d. excrete
ANSWER: C n
Patients also may have chronic hepatitis (B or C) or cirrhosis, with impairment of liver
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n
function. This deficit may result in prolonged bleeding and less efficient metabolism of
n n n n n n n n n n n n n
certain drugs, including local anesthetics and analgesics.

ANSWER: B n
Symptoms and signs consistent with allergy include itching, urticaria (hives), rash, swelling,
n n n n n n n n n n n
wheezing, angioedema, runny nose, and tearing eyes. Isolated signs and symptoms such as
n n n n n n n n n n n n n
nausea, vomiting, heart palpitations, and fainting generally are not of an allergic origin but rather
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n
are manifestations of drug intolerance, adverse side effects, or psychogenic reactions.

5. Which of the following is true of the patient with a history of tuberculosis?
n n n n n n n n n n n n n
a. A positive result on skin testing means that the person has active TB.
n n n n n n n n n n n n
b. Most patients who become positive skin testers develop active disease.
n n n n n n n n n
c. Patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) have a high incidence of
n n n n n n n n n n
tuberculosis.
n
d. A diagnosis of active TB is made by a purified protein derivative (PPD) skin test.
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n
ANSWER: C n
The potential coexistence of tuberculosis and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)
n n n n n n n n n
should be explored because patients with AIDS have a high incidence of tuberculosis. A positive
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n
result on skin testing means specifically that the person has at some time been infected with TB,
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n
not necessarily that active disease is present. Most patients who become positive skin testers do
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n
not develop active disease. A diagnosis of active TB is made by chest x-ray, imaging, sputum
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n
culture, and clinical examination.
n n n n
6. Vasoconstrictors should be avoided in patients who cocaine or methamphetamine users n n n n n n n n n n
because these agents may precipitate
n n n n n .
a. severe hypotension n
b. severe hypertension n
c. respiratory depression n
d. cessation of intestinal peristalsis n n n
ANSWER: B n
Vasoconstrictors should be avoided in patients who are cocaine or methamphetamine users n n n n n n n n n n n
because the combination may precipitate arrhythmias, MI, or severe hypertension.
n n n n n n n n n n
7. It has been shown that the risk for occurrence of a serious perioperative cardiovascular event
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n
(e.g., MI, heart failure) is increased in patients who are unable to meet a -MET (metabolic
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n
equivalent of task) demand during normal daily activity.
n n n n n n n n
a. 4
b. 6
c. 8
d. 10
ANSWER: A n
Daily activities requiring 4 METs include level walking at 4 miles/hour or climbing a flight of stairs.
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n
Activities requiring greater than 10 METs include swimming and singles tennis. An exercise
n n n n n n n n n n n n n
capacity of 10 to 13 METs indicates excellent physical conditioning.
