Post by: smcc617 on Feb 22, 2018
What does rebound mean during the physical examination?
 
  A. The condition of abnormal loosening of tissues
  B. Abnormal hardening of tissues
  C. An abnormal tightening or shortening of muscles, usually in the extremities, that permanently limits the movement of the body part
  D. A sudden tightening of muscles caused by an autonomic reflex because of disease, illness or injury



(Q. 2) What is an induration?
 
  A. The condition of abnormal loosening of tissues, as in a loss of firmness in skin
  B. Abnormal hardening of tissues
  C. A specific form of muscular rigidity caused by tension in the muscles
  D. An abnormal tightening or shortening of muscles, usually in the extremities, that permanently limits the movement of the body part



(Q. 3) When should the general multisystem physical examination guidelines be referenced?
 
  A. The organ system/body area physical examination and the general multisystem physical examination are interchangeable
  B. The organ system/body area physical examination is easier to use and therefore should be the primary reference regardless of the anatomic detail in the documented physical examination
  C. The general multisystem physical examination guidelines should be referenced when the organ system/body area guidelines do not provide enough anatomic detail to properly reflect the documented physical examination
  D. The general multisystem physical examination guidelines should always be referenced because the anatomic specificity is more clinically appropriate



(Q. 4) What does the word hepatosplenomegaly indicate?
 
  A. Enlargement of the liver and spleen
  B. Enlargement of the large arteries found in the upper thigh, or femur
  C. Bending from side to side
  D. The abnormal collection of fluid in a body cavity or organ



(Q. 5) What are the cranial nerves?
 
  A. One of many neurologic tests that provide indication of the integrity of the central nervous system and the peripheral nervous system
  B. The 12 nerves that connect the brain to 12 various sensory and motor sections of the head
  C. The neurologic reaction of the toes and soles of the feet when the bottoms of the feet are stroked
  D. Appropriate identification of oneself and the known nearby people



(Q. 6) What is a murmur?
 
  A. The abnormal collection of fluid in a body cavity or organ
  B. A sound that can be heard in the lungs in association with lung disease, but may also occur when two ends of a broken bone rub together
  C. An abnormal heart sound
  D. The abnormal sound of friction caused by inflamed tissues rubbing together



(Q. 7) What are the intercostal muscles?
 
  A. An abnormal tightening or shortening of muscles
  B. Supplemental muscles that provide support or aid to essential organs, tissues, or structures
  C. The tendon that runs along the back of the thigh, from the hip to the knee
  D. The muscles between the ribs that contract during respiration



(Q. 8) What is femur and where is it located?
 
  A. The larger of the two lower leg bones between the knee and the ankle
  B. The rounded protuberance at either end of the tibia
  C. The large bone located in the thigh that extends from the hip bone to the knee
  D. The hard part of the roof of the mouth



(Q. 9) Which of the following defines fremitus?
 
  A. A crackling or grating sound; in the lungs, associated with lung disease; also occurs when two ends of a broken bone rub together
  B. Vibrations that can be felt externally when breathing or speaking
  C. The abnormal sound of friction caused by inflamed tissues rubbing together
  D. An abnormal sound heard during lung auscultation that is caused by air rushing through mucosal secretions in or swollen tissues of the bronchioles



(Q. 10) Which of the following BEST defines the comprehensive general multisystem physical examination?
 
  A. Documentation of eight or more organ systems or body areas that have been examined by the clinician
  B. Documentation of nine or more organ systems or body areas
  C. Documentation of a complete examination of a single organ system and any other symptomatic (or related) body areas or organ systems
  D. Documentation of at least two elements identified by a bullet for each examined organ system or body area, with at least nine areas/systems examined
