MULTIPLE CHOICE ai
1. ANS: B a i
Croskerry (2009) describes two major types of clinical diagnostic decision-
ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai
making: intuitive and analytical. Intuitive decision-making (similar to Augenblink decision-
ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai
making) is based on the experience and intuition of the clinician and is less reliable and paired w
ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai
ith fairly common errors. In contrast, analytical decision-
ai ai ai ai ai ai ai
making is based on careful consideration and has greater reliabilitywith rare errors.

2. ANS: D a i
To obtain adequate history, providers must be well organized, attentive to the patient’s verbal and
ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ia
nonverbal language, and able to accurately interpret the patient’s responses to questions. Rathe
ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai
r than reading into the patient’s statements, they clarify any areas of uncertainty.

3. ANS: C a i
Vital signs are part of the physical examination portion of patient assessment, not part of the healthhis
ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ia
tory.
PTS: 1
4. ANS: D a i
While performing the physical examination, the examiner must be able to differentiate betweenn
ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ia
ormal and abnormal findings, recall knowledge of a range of conditions, including their associate
ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai
d signs and symptoms, recognize how certain conditions affect the response to other conditions,
ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai
and distinguish the relevance of varied abnormal findings.

5. ANS: C a i
Sources for diagnostic statistics include textbooks, primary reports of research, and published
ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai
meta-
analyses. Another source of statistics, the one that has been most widely used and available for
ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai
application to the reasoning process, is the estimation based on a provider’s experience, altho
ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai
ugh these are rarely accurate. Over the past decade, the availability of evidence on which to ba
ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai
se clinical reasoning is improving, and there is an increasing expectation that clinical reasoningb

e based on scientific evidence. Evidence-
ai ai ai ai ai
based statistics are also increasingly being used to develop resources to facilitate clinical decisi

on-making.

6. ANS: D a i
To assist in clinical decision-making, a number of evidence-

based resources have been developedto assist the clinician. Resources, such as algorithms and cli
