PTS: 1 5. Which of t he following is the least reliable source of information for diagnostic statistics ? A. Evidence -based investigations B. Primary reports of research C. Estimation based on a provider’s experience D. Published meta -analyses ANS: C Sources for diagnostic statistics include textbooks, primary reports of research, and published meta -analyses. Another source of statistics, the one that has been most widely used and available for application to the reasoning process, is the estimation ba sed on a provider’s experience, although these are rarely accurate. Over the past decade, the availability of evidence on which to base clinical reasoning is improving, and there is an increasing expectation that clinical reasoning be based on scientific e vidence. Evidence -based statistics are also increasingly being used to develop resources to facilitate clinical decision making. PTS: 1 6. Which of t he following can be used to assist in sound clinical decision making ? A. An a lgorithm published in a peer -reviewed journal article B. Clinical practice guidelines C.

A high percentage of persons with the given condition will have an abnormal result B. A high percentage of persons without the condition will have inconclusive results C. A low likelihood of normal result in persons without a given condition D. A low percentage of persons with the given condition will have an abnormal result ANS: A The sensitivity of a diagnostic study is the per centage of individuals with the target condition who show an abnormal, or positive, result. A high sensitivity indicates that a greater percentage of persons with the given condition will have an abnormal result. PTS: 1 8. If a diagnostic study has hi gh specificity, this indicates: A. A low percentage of healthy individuals will show a normal result B. A high percentage of healthy individuals will show a normal result C. A high percentage of individuals with a disorder will show a normal result D. A low percentage of individuals with a disorder will show an abnormal result ANS: B The specificity of a diagnostic study is the percentage of normal, healthy individuals who have a normal result. The greater the specificity, the greater the percentage of individuals who will have negative, or normal, results if they do not have the targe t condition. PTS: 1 9. A likelihood ratio above 1 indicates that a diagnostic test showing a: A. Positive result is strongly associated with the disease B. Negative result is strongly associated with absence of the disease C. Positive result is weakly associated with the disease D. Negative result is weakly associated with absence of the disease ANS: A The likelihood ratio is the probability that a posit ive test result will be associated with a person who has the target condition and a negative result will be associated with a healthy person. A likelihood ratio above 1 indicates that a positive result is associated with the disease; a likelihood ratio les s than 1 indicates that a negative result is associated with an absence of the disease.
