ANS: B ff


Previously, the American Heart Association (AHA) recommended antibiotic prophylaxis
ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff


formany patients with heart murmurs caused by valvular disease (e.g., mitral valve
ff f ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff


prolapse, rheumatic heart disease) in an effort to prevent infective endocarditis; however,

current guidelines omit this recommendation on the basis of accumulated scientific
ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff


evidence. If a murmur is due to certain specific cardiac conditions (e.g., previous
ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff


endocarditis, prosthetic heart valve, complex congenital cyanotic heart disease), the AHA
ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff

ANS: B ff


Symptoms and signs consistent with allergy include itching, urticaria (hives), rash,
ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff


swelling,wheezing, angioedema, runny nose, and tearing eyes. Isolated signs and
ff f ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff


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

ANS: C ff


The potential coexistence of tuberculosis and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome
ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff


(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
ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff


some time been infected with TB, not necessarily that active disease is present. Most
ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff


patients who become positive skin testers do not develop active disease. A diagnosis of
ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff ff


active TB is made by chestx-ray, imaging, sputum culture, and clinical examination.
ff ff ff ff ff ff f ff ff ff ff ff ff
