1. For which of the following patients would a comprehensive health history be
appropriate?
A) A new patient with the chief complaint of “I sprained my ankle”
B) An established patient with the chief complaint of “I have an upper respiratory
infection”
C) A new patient with the chief complaint of “I am here to establish care”
D) A new patient with the chief complaint of “I cut my hand”
Ans: C
Feedback:
This patient is here to establish care, and because she is new to you, a comprehensive
health history is appropriate.


2. The components of the health history include all of the following except which one?
A) Review of systems
B) Thorax and lungs
C) Present illness
D) Personal and social items
Ans: B
Feedback:
The thorax and lungs are part of the physical examination, not part of the health
history. The others answers are all part of a complete health history.

Mr. M. has shortness of breath that has persisted for the past 10 days; it is worse with
activity and relieved by rest.

complaint. It does not represent an objective observation by the examiner.

This is a measurement obtained by the examiner, so it is considered objective data.
The patient is unlikely to be able to give this information to the examiner.


5. The following information is recorded in the health history: “The patient has had
abdominal pain for 1 week. The pain lasts for 30 minutes at a time; it comes and
goes. The severity is 7 to 9 on a scale of 1 to 10. It is accompanied by nausea and
vomiting. It is located in the mid-epigastric area.”
Which of these categories does it belong to?
A) Chief complaint
B) Present illness
C) Personal and social history
D) Review of systems
Ans: B
Feedback:
This information describes the problem of abdominal pain, which is the present
illness. The interviewer has obtained the location, timing, severity, and associated
manifestations of the pain. The interviewer will still need to obtain information
concerning the quality of the pain, the setting in which it occurred, and the factors
that aggravate and alleviate the pain. You will notice that it does include portions of
the pertinent review of systems, but because it relates directly to the complaint, it is
included in the history of present illness.


6. The following information is recorded in the health history: “The patient completed
8th grade. He currently lives with his wife and two children. He works on old cars on
the weekend. He works in a glass factory during the week.”
Which category does it belong to?
A) Chief complaint
B) Present illness
C) Personal and social history
D) Review of systems
Ans: C
Feedback:
Personal and social history information includes educational level, family of origin,
current household status, personal interests, employment, religious beliefs, military
history, and lifestyle (including diet and exercise habits; use of alcohol, tobacco, and/
or drugs; and sexual preferences and history). All of this information is documented
in this example.


7. The following information is recorded in the health history: “I feel really tired.”
Which category does it belong to?
