,2|Page

Rationale; : The gastric bubble produces one of the longest

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

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
