2. The American Heart Association currently recommends antibiotic prophylaxis for a
patient with which of the following cardiac conditions?
A. mitral valve prolapse
B. prosthetic heart valve
C. rheumatic heart disease
D. pacemakers for cardiac arrhythmias
ANS: B
Previously, the American Heart Association (AHA) recommended antibiotic
prophylaxis for many patients with heart murmurs caused by valvular disease (e.g.,
mitral valve prolapse, rheumatic heart disease) in an effort to prevent infective
endocarditis; current guidelines omit this recommendation on the basis of
accumulated scientific evidence. If a murmur is due to specific cardiac conditions
(e.g., previous endocarditis, prosthetic heart valve, complex congenital cyanotic
heart disease), the AHA continues to recommend antibiotic prophylaxis for most
dental procedures. Patients with pacemakers do not require antibiotic prophylaxis.
PTS: 1 REF: pp. 4-5
3. One consequence of chronic hepatitis (B or C) or cirrhosis of the liver is decreased
ability of the body to _________ certain drugs, including local anesthetics and
