, Answer Section itju




MULTIPLE CHOICE itju




1. ANS: B i t j u i t j u



Croskerry (2009) describes two major types of clinical diagnostic decision-making:
itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju



intuitive and analytical. Intuitive decision-making (similar to Augenblink decision-
itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju



making) is based on the experience and intuition of the clinician and is less
itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju



reliable and paired with fairly common errors. In contrast, analytical decision-
itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju



making is based on careful consideration and has greater reliability with rare
itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju



errors.

PTS: 1
2. ANS: D i t j u i t j u



To obtain adequate history, providers must be well organized, attentive to the
itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju



patient’s verbal and nonverbal language, and able to accurately interpret the patient’s
itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju



responses to questions. Rather than reading into the patient’s statements, they clarify
itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju



any areas of uncertainty.
itju itju itju itju




PTS: 1
3. ANS: C i t j u i t j u



Vital signs are part of the physical examination portion of patient assessment, not
itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju



part of the health history.
itju itju itju itju itju




PTS: 1
4. ANS: D i t j u i t j u



While performing the physical examination, the examiner must be able to
itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju



differentiate between normal and abnormal findings, recall knowledge of a range
itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju



of conditions, including their associated signs and symptoms, recognize how
itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju



certain conditions affect the response to other conditions, and distinguish the
itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju



relevance of varied abnormal findings.
itju itju itju itju itju




PTS: 1
5. ANS: C i t j u i t j u



Sources for diagnostic statistics include textbooks, primary reports of research, and
itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju



published meta-analyses. Another source of statistics, the one that has been most
itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju



widely used and available for application to the reasoning process, is the estimation
itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju



based on a provider’s experience, although these are rarely accurate. Over the past
itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju



decade, the availability of evidence on which to base clinical reasoning is
itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju



improving, and there is an increasing expectation that clinical reasoning be based on
itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju



scientific evidence. Evidence- based statistics are also increasingly being used to
itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju itju



develop resources to facilitate clinical decision-making.
