Subcostal What is the number and location of the papillary muscles of a normal mitral valve? A. one; the posteromedial B. two; the posteromedial and anterolateral C. two; the inferolateral and posteromedial D. thre e; the anterolateral, posteromedial, and inferolateral - ANSWER - B. two; the posterolateral and anterolateral Clinically, prolapse of the mitral valve is associated with: A. Opening snap and systolic murmur B. Diastolic murmur and third heart sound C. Fixed splitting of the second heart sound D. Midsystolic click and/or late systolic murmur - ANSWER - D. Midsystolic click and/or late systolic murmur Papillary muscle dysfunction usually results from: A. Dre ssler's syndrome B. Ischemic heart disease C. Bacterial endocarditis D. Rheumatic heart disease - ANSWER - B. Ischemic heart disease In order to record the vegetation's of endocarditis by echo, the vegetation's must have a diameter of at least: A. One c entimeter B. Three millimeters C. Three centimeters D. Five millimeters - ANSWER - B. Three millimeters How many veins connect the pulmonary vascular bed with the left atrium in the normal heart?

A. akinesis B. dyskinesis C. hypokinesis D. hyperk inesis - ANSWER - A. akinesis A true aneurysm of the left ventricle can usually be distinguished from a pseudoaneurysm because a pseudoaneurysm: A. has a smaller, more narrow neck than a true aneurysm B. never contain thrombi whereas a true aneurysm alwa ys contain a layered thrombus C. is always larger in overall size than a true aneurysm - ANSWER - A. has a smaller, more narrow neck than a true aneurysm Which type of cardiomyopathy is associated with amyloidosis? a. congestive b. restrictive c. hyper trophic d. infiltrative - ANSWER - d. infiltrative In a patient with carcinoid heart disease, the cardiac sonographer must devote special attention to identifying abnormalities of the: a. aortic arch b. aortic valve c. mitral valve d. tricuspid valve - ANSWER - d. tricuspid valve Which two -dimensional echocardiographic view is best for identifying the malformed tricuspid valve apparatus that characterizes Ebstein's anomaly: a. apical two chamber b. apical four chamber c. parasternal long axis d. parasternal short axis - ANSWER - b. apical four chamber Infundibular pulmonary stenosis is uncommon as an isolated lesion and is usually associated with: a. tricuspid atresia b. atrial septal defect c. coarctation of the aorta d. ventricular septal defect - ANSWER - d. Ventricular se ptal defect Which two -dimensional echocardiographic view is best for the assessment of the interatrial septum? a. apical long axis b. apical four chamber c. parasternal short axis d. subcostal four chamber - ANSWER - d. subcostal The most common type of atrial septal defect is the: a. ostium primum b. sinus venosus c. coronary sinus d. ostium secundum - ANSWER - d. ostium secundum M-mode echo demonstration of mid -systolic closure of the pulmonary valve along with a decreased "a" wave is most consis tent with: a. pulmonary hypertension b. pulmonary insufficiency c. valvular pulmonary stenosis d. infundibular pulmonary stenosis - ANSWER - a. pulmonary hypertension False overriding of the aorta may be produced on the M -mode echo by: a. using a transducer with too low a frequency b. failure to turn the patient into a left decubitus position c. positioning the transducer in too high and intercostal space d. position ing the transducer in too low an intercostal space - ANSWER - c. positioning the transducer in too high and intercostal space Atrial fibrillation is most commonly associated with which valvular disease? a. bicuspid aortic valve b. mitral valve prolapse c. calcific aortic stenosis d. rheumatic mitral stenosis - ANSWER - d. rheumatic mitral stenosis Which is an example of a bioprosthetic cardiac valve? a.

Ionescu -Shirley bovine pericardial Doppler measures a pressure drop (gradient) by the Bernoulli equation. This equation actually measures the ___gradient across the valve. a. mean b. peak to peak c. peak instantaneous d. pre ssure half -time - ANSWER - c. peak instantaneous When a patient has a clinical diagnosis of pericarditis: a. a pericardal effusion is always present on echo b. a pericardial effusion may not be present on echo c. pericardial thickening is always present on echo d. pericardial thickening must not be present on echo - ANSWER - B. a pericardial effusion may not be present on echo In normal patients, most ventricular filling occurs: a. with atrial contraction b. in the first third of diastole c. in the middle third of diastole d. during the PR interval of the ECG - ANSWER - b. in the first third of diastole The patient you are examining has clear cut auscultatory and angiographic evidence for mital prolapse, yet the resting echocardiogram is normal.
