  C. An intestinal condition in which part of the small intestine folds in on itself, thereby creating a telescope-like compression as the walls of the small intestine rub together
  D. An abnormal presence of air or gas within the pleural cavity, which can cause pain, difficult breathing, or lung collapse

(Q. 5) The low overall level of medical decision making requires which of the following?
 
  A. Reflects a relatively uncomplicated process of medical decision making
  B. Reflects a more complicated combination of medical decision-making elements but does not warrant a significant or substantial level of medical decision making
  C. Reflects more complicated coordination on the part of the physician performing the E/M service but does not pose an excessive risk to the patient
