CHAPTER 1. THE FOUNDATIONAL CONCEPTS OF CLINICAL PRACTICE




1. THE CHARACTERISTIC, LOCALIZED CARDINAL SIGNS OF ACUTE INFLAMMATION INCLUDE:

A) FEVER.

B) FATIGUE.

C) REDNESS.

D) GRANULOMA.



2. THE VASCULAR, HEMODYNAMIC STAGE OF ACUTE INFLAMMATION IS INITIATED BY
MOMENTARY VASOCONSTRICTION FOLLOWED BY VASODILATION THAT CAUSES LOCALIZED:

A) BLEEDING.

,B) CONGESTION.

C) PALE SKIN.

D) COOLNESS.



3. THE CELLULAR STAGE OF ACUTE INFLAMMATION IS MARKED BY THE MOVEMENT OF
LEUKOCYTES INTO THE AREA. WHICH OF THE FOLLOWING CELLS ARRIVES EARLY IN GREAT
NUMBERS?

A) BASOPHILS

B) LYMPHOCYTES

C) NEUTROPHILS

D) PLATELETS



4. THE PHAGOCYTOSIS PROCESS INVOLVES THREE DISTINCT STEPS. WHAT IS THE INITIAL STEP
IN THE PROCESS?

A) ENGULFMENT

B) INTRACELLULAR KILLING

C) ANTIGEN MARGINATION

D) RECOGNITION AND ADHERENCE



5. WHICH OF THE FOLLOWING MEDIATORS OF INFLAMMATION CAUSES INCREASED CAPILLARY
PERMEABILITY AND PAIN?

A) SEROTONIN

B) HISTAMINE

C) BRADYKININ

D) NITRIC OXIDE



6. INFLAMMATORY EXUDATES ARE A COMBINATION OF SEVERAL TYPES. WHICH OF THE
FOLLOWING EXUDATES IS COMPOSED OF ENMESHED NECROTIC CELLS?

A) SEROUS

B) FIBRINOUS

C) SUPPURATIVE

D) MEMBRANOUS

, 7. THE ACUTE-PHASE SYSTEMIC RESPONSE USUALLY BEGINS WITHIN HOURS OF THE ONSET OF
INFLAMMATION AND INCLUDES:

A) FEVER AND LETHARGY.

B) DECREASED C-REACTIVE PROTEIN.

C) POSITIVE NITROGEN BALANCE.

D) LOW ERYTHROCYTE SEDIMENTATION RATE.



8. IN CONTRAST TO ACUTE INFLAMMATION, CHRONIC INFLAMMATION IS CHARACTERIZED BY
WHICH OF THE FOLLOWING PHENOMENA?



A) PROFUSE FIBRINOUS EXUDATION

B) A SHIFT TO THE LEFT OF GRANULOCYTES

C) METABOLIC AND RESPIRATORY ALKALOSIS

D) LYMPHOCYTOSIS AND ACTIVATED MACROPHAGES



9. EXOGENOUS PYROGENS (INTERLEUKIN-1) AND THE PRESENCE OF BACTERIA IN THE BLOOD
LEAD TO THE RELEASE OF ENDOGENOUS PYROGENS THAT:
