MULTIPLE CHOICE

1. Elective dental care should be deferred for patients with severe, uncontrolled

Hg.
A. 200/140
B. 180/140
C. 180/110
D. 160/110

the condition can be brought under control.

PTS: 1 REF: p. 4

2. The American Heart Association currently recommends antibiotic prophylaxis for a
patient with which of the following cardiac conditions?
A. mitral valve prolapse
B. prosthetic heart valve
C. rheumatic heart disease
D. pacemakers for cardiac arrhythmias

ANS: 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; current
guidelines omit this recommendation on the basis of accumulated scientific evidence. If a
murmur is due to 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. Patients with pacemakers do not
require antibiotic prophylaxis.

3. One consequence of chronic hepatitis (B or C) or cirrhosis of the liver is decreased ability
of the body to _________ certain drugs, including local anesthetics and analgesics.
A. absorb
B. distribute
C. metabolize
D. excrete

ANS: C
Patients with chronic hepatitis (B or C) or cirrhosis have an associated impairment of
liver function. This deficit may result in prolonged bleeding and less efficient metabolism
of certain drugs, including local anesthetics and analgesics.

PTS: 1 REF: p. 6

4. Which of the following symptoms and signs is most consistent with allergy?
A. heart palpitations
B. itching
C. vomiting
D. fainting

ANS: 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 rather are manifestations of drug intolerance, adverse side effects, or
psychogenic reactions.

PTS: 1 REF: p. 6

5. Which of the following is true of the patient with a history of tuberculosis?
A. A positive result on skin testing means that the person has active TB.
B. Most patients who become positive skin testers develop active disease.
C. Patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) have a high
incidence of tuberculosis.
D. A diagnosis of active TB is made by a purified protein derivative (PPD) skin test.

, Test Bank 1-3


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.

PTS: 1 REF: p. 6-7

6. Vasoconstrictors should be avoided in patients who are using cocaine or
methamphetamine because these agents may precipitate _________.
A. severe hypotension
B. severe hypertension
C. respiratory depression
D. cessation of intestinal peristalsis

ANS: B
Vasoconstrictors may precipitate cardiac arrhythmias or severe hypertension in patients
who are using cocaine or methamphetamine. Respiratory depression is associated with
the use of opioids.

PTS: 1 REF: p. 8

7. It has been shown that the risk for occurrence of a serious perioperative cardiovascular
event is increased in patients who are unable to meet a __-MET (metabolic equivalent of
task) demand during normal daily activity.
A. 4
B. 6
C. 8
D. 10

ANS: A
Risk is increased in patients unable to meet a 4-MET demand. Daily activities requiring 4
METs include level walking at 4 miles/hour or climbing a flight of stairs. Activities
requiring greater than 10 METs include swimming and singles tennis.

PTS: 1 REF: p. 9

8. Which of the following alterations in the fingernails is associated with cirrhosis?
A. yellowing
