MULTIPLE CHOICE e
1. Elective dental care should be deferred for patients with severe, uncontrolled hypertension,
e e e e e e e e e e e
meaning that the blood pressure is greater than or equal to
e e e e e e e e e e e mm Hg. e
a. 200/140
b. 180/140
ee e
c. 180/110
d. 160/110
ee e
ANS: C e
Elective dental care should be deferred for patients with severe, uncontrolled hypertension,
e e e e e e e e e e e
which is blood pressure greater than or equal to 180/110 mm Hg, until the condition can be
e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e
brought under control.
e e e
2. The American Heart Association currently recommends antibiotic prophylaxis for a patient
e e e e e e e e e e
with which of the following cardiac conditions?
e e e e e e e
a. Mitral valve prolapse e e
b. Prosthetic heart valve e e
c. Rheumatic heart disease e e
d. Pacemakers for cardiac arrhythmias e e e
ANS: B e
Previously, the American Heart Association (AHA) recommended antibiotic prophylaxis for
e e e e e e e e e
many patients with heart murmurs caused by valvular disease (e.g., mitral valve prolapse,
e e e e e e e e e e e e e
rheumatic heart disease) in an effort to prevent infective endocarditis; however, current
e e e e e e e e e e e e
guidelines omit this recommendation on the basis of accumulated scientific evidence. If a
e e e e e e e e e e e e e
murmur is due to certain specific cardiac conditions (e.g., previous endocarditis, prosthetic
e e e e e e e e e e e e
heart valve, complex congenital cyanotic heart disease), the AHA continues to recommend
e e e e e e e e e e e e
antibiotic prophylaxis for most dental procedures.
e e e e e e
3. One consequence of chronic hepatitis (B or C) or cirrhosis of the liver is decreased ability of
e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e
the body to
e e e certain drugs, including local anesthetics and analgesics.
e e e e e e
a. absorb
b. distribute
c. metabolize
d. excrete
ANS: C e
Patients also may have chronic hepatitis (B or C) or cirrhosis, with impairment of liver
e e e e e e e e e e e e e e
function. This deficit may result in prolonged bleeding and less efficient metabolism of
e e e e e e e e e e e e e
certain drugs, including local anesthetics and analgesics.
e e e e e e e
4. Which of the following symptoms and signs is most consistent with allergy?
e e e e e e e e e e e

b. Itching
c. Vomiting

ANS: B e
Symptoms and signs consistent with allergy include itching, urticaria (hives), rash, swelling,
e e e e e e e e e e e
wheezing, angioedema, runny nose, and tearing eyes. Isolated signs and symptoms such as
e e e e e e e e e e e e e
nausea, vomiting, heart palpitations, and fainting generally are not of an allergic origin but
e e e e e e e e e e e e e e
rather are manifestations of drug intolerance, adverse side effects, or psychogenic reactions.
e e e e e e e e e e e e
5. Which of the following is true of the patient with a history of tuberculosis?
e e e e e e e e e e e e e
a. A positive result on skin testing means that the person has active TB.
e e e e e e e e e e e e
b. Most patients who become positive skin testers develop active disease.
e e e e e e e e e
c. Patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) have a high incidence
e e e e e e e e e
of tuberculosis.
e e
d. A diagnosis of active TB is made by a purified protein derivative (PPD) skin test.
e e e e e e e e e e e e e e
ANS: C e
The potential coexistence of tuberculosis and acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)
e e e e e e e e e
should be explored because patients with AIDS have a high incidence of tuberculosis. A
e e e e e e e e e e e e e e
positive result on skin testing means specifically that the person has at some time been
e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e
infected with TB, not necessarily that active disease is present. Most patients who become
e e e e e e e e e e e e e e
positive skin testers do not develop active disease. A diagnosis of active TB is made by chest
e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e
x-ray, imaging, sputum culture, and clinical examination.
e e e e e e e
6. Vasoconstrictors should be avoided in patients who cocaine or methamphetamine users e e e e e e e e e e
because these agents may precipitate
e e e e e .
a. severe hypotension e
b. severe hypertension e
c. respiratory depression e
d. cessation of intestinal peristalsis e e e
ANS: B e
Vasoconstrictors should be avoided in patients who are cocaine or methamphetamine users e e e e e e e e e e e
because the combination may precipitate arrhythmias, MI, or severe hypertension.
e e e e e e e e e e
7. It has been shown that the risk for occurrence of a serious perioperative cardiovascular event
e e e e e e e e e e e e e e
(e.g., MI, heart failure) is increased in patients who are unable to meet a -MET (metabolic
e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e
equivalent of task) demand during normal daily activity.
e e e e e e e e
a. 4
b. 6
c. 8
d. 10
ANS: A e
Daily activities requiring 4 METs include level walking at 4 miles/hour or climbing a flight of
e e e e e e e e e e e e e e e
stairs. Activities requiring greater than 10 METs include swimming and singles tennis. An
e e e e e e e e e e e e e
exercise capacity of 10 to 13 METs indicates excellent physical conditioning.
e e e e e e e e e e e
8. Which of the following alterations in the fingernails is associated with cirrhosis?
e e e e e e e e e e e
a. Yellowing
b. Clubbing
c. White discoloration e
