,2|Page


D. Flatness - ANSWER- ANS: B


Rationale; : The gastric bubble produces one of the longest
percussion notes. A patient with COPD may have
hyperresonance over his chest, while a normal person would
have resonance. Dullness is heard over a normal liver, and
flatness is heard if one percusses a large muscle


Where is the point of maximal impulse (PMI) normally located?


A. In the left 5th intercostal space, 7 to 9 cm lateral to the
sternum
B. In the left 5th intercostal space, 10 to 12 cm lateral to the
sternum
C. In the left 5th intercostal space, in the anterior axillary line
D. In the left 5th intercostal space, in the midaxillary line -
ANSWER- ANS: A


Rationale; The PMI is usually located in the left 5th
intercostal space, 7 to 9 centimeters lateral to the sternal
border. If it is located more laterally, it usually represents
cardiac enlargement. Its size should not be greater than the
size of a US quarter, or about an inch. Left ventricular
enlargement should be suspected if it is larger. The PMI is
often the best place to listen for mitral valve murmurs as

well as S3 and S4. The PMI is often difficult to feel in normal

hours, and she is frustrated that she has had to leave or miss
work on three separate occasions. She would like a diagnosis
and the problem fixed. Which symptoms or signs would be most
suggestive of a diagnosis of biliary colic?


A. Vomiting of bile
B. Poorly localized periumbilical pain
C. Associated right shoulder pain
D. Positive McBurney point tenderness
E. Exacerbating factor includes alcohol intake - ANSWER-
ANS: C


Rationale; Pain with biliary colic can produce referred pain
to the right shoulder or scapula due to irritation of the right
hemidiaphragm. Alcohol is not an exacerbating factor for
biliary colic. Positive McBurney point tenderness is
associated with acute appendicitis. The Murphy sign is
associated with acute cholecystitis. Vomiting bile is
associated with small bowel obstruction


A 37-year-old nurse comes for evaluation of colicky right upper
quadrant abdominal pain. The pain is associated with nausea and
vomiting and occurs 1 to 2 hours after eating greasy foods.
