Assessment and Clinical Decision Making: An Overview<br>MULTIPLE CHOICE<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Which type of clinical decision making is most reliable?<br>A. Analytical I<br>B. Augenblink<br>C. Experiential<br>D. Intuitive<br>ANS: A<br>Croskerry (2009) describes two major types of clinical diagnostic<br>decision making: intuitive and analytical. Intuitive decision making (similar to Augenblink decision<br>making) is based on the experience and intuition of the clinician and is less reliable and paired with<br>fairly common errors. In contrast, analytical decision making is based on careful consideration and has<br>greater reliability with rare errors.<br>PTS: 1<br>,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You are using the PQRST approach while completing the history of present illness for a patient<br>complaining of pain. Which of the following questions is relevant to the \u201cP\u201d portion of this approach?<br>A. How would you describe your pain?<br>B. Can you point to the area of most severe pain?<br>C. How has your pain changed since you first noticed it?<br>D. What makes the pain worse or better?<br>ANS: D<br>In the PQRST model, \u201cP\u201d refers to exploring precipitating and palliative factors. Identify factors that<br>make the symptom worse and\/or better, any previous self-treatment or prescribed treatment, and<br>response.<br>PTS: 1<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>2<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" start=\"3\">\n<li>Essential parts of a health history include all of the following except:<br>A. Chief complaint<br>B. Current vital signs<br>C. History of the present illness<br>D. Review of systems<br>ANS: B<br>Vital signs are part of the physical examination portion of patient assessment, not part of the health<br>history.<br>PTS: 1<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>While reading an article on hypothyroidism, you find a helpful graphic depiction of the decisionmaking process recommended by the authors to find a definitive diagnosis. This graphic is an example<br>of:<br>A. A clinical prediction tool<br>B. Clinical guidelines<br>C. A decision tree<br>D. A diagnostic finding guide<br>ANS: C<br>Clinical decision trees provide a graphic depiction of the decision-making process, showing the<br>pathway based on findings at various steps in the process.<br>PTS: 1<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Which of the following is the least reliable source of information for diagnostic statistics?<br>A. Evidence-based investigations<br>B. Primary reports of research<br>C. Estimation based on a provider\u2019s experience<br>D. Published meta-analyses<br>ANS: C<br>Sources for diagnostic statistics include textbooks, primary reports of research, and published metaanalyses. Another source of statistics, the one that has been most widely used and available for<br>application to the reasoning process, is the estimation based on a provider\u2019s experience, although these<br>are rarely accurate. Over the past decade, the availability of evidence on which to base clinical<br>reasoning is improving, and there is an increasing expectation that clinical reasoning be based on<br>scientific evidence. Evidence-based statistics are also increasingly being used to develop resources to<br>facilitate clinical decision making.<br>PTS: 1<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>3<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" start=\"6\">\n<li>Which of the following can be used to assist in sound clinical decision making?<br>A. An algorithm published in a peer-reviewed journal article<br>B. Clinical practice guidelines<br>C. Evidence-based research<br>D. All of the above<br>ANS: D<br>To assist in clinical decision making, a number of evidence-based resources have been developed to<br>assist the clinician. Resources, such as algorithms and clinical practice guidelines, assist in clinical<br>reasoning when properly applied.<br>PTS: 1<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If a diagnostic study has high sensitivity, this indicates:<br>A. A high percentage of persons with the given condition will have an abnormal result<br>B. A high percentage of persons without the condition will have inconclusive results<br>C. A low likelihood of normal result in persons without a given condition<br>D. A low percentage of persons with the given condition will have an abnormal result<br>ANS: A<br>The sensitivity of a diagnostic study is the percentage of individuals with the target condition who<br>show an abnormal, or positive, result. A high sensitivity indicates that a greater percentage of persons<br>with the given condition will have an abnormal result.<br>PTS: 1<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If a diagnostic study has high specificity, this indicates:<br>A. A low percentage of healthy individuals will show a normal result<br>B. A high percentage of healthy individuals will show a normal result<br>C. A high percentage of individuals with a disorder will show a normal result<br>D. A low percentage of individuals with a disorder will show an abnormal result<br>ANS: B<br>The specificity of a diagnostic study is the percentage of normal, healthy individuals who have a<br>normal result. The greater the specificity, the greater the percentage of individuals who will have<br>negative, or normal, results if they do not have the target condition.<br>PTS: 1<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A likelihood ratio above 1 indicates that a diagnostic test showing a:<br>A. Positive result is strongly associated with the disease<br>B. Negative result is strongly associated with absence of the disease<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>4<br>C. Positive result is weakly associated with the disease<br>D. Negative result is weakly associated with absence of the disease<br>ANS: A<br>The likelihood ratio is the probability that a positive test result will be associated with a person who<br>has the target condition and a negative result will be associated with a healthy person. A likelihood<br>ratio above 1 indicates that a positive result is associated with the disease; a likelihood ratio less than 1<br>indicates that a negative result is associated with an absence of the disease.<br>PTS: 1<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" start=\"10\">\n<li>Which of the following clinical reasoning tools is defined as an evidence-based resource based on<br>mathematical modeling to express the likelihood of a condition in select situations, settings, and\/or<br>patients?<br>A. Clinical practice guideline<br>B. Clinical decision rule<br>C. Clinical algorithm<br>D. Clinical recommendation<br>ANS: B<br>Clinical decision (or prediction) rules provide another support for clinical reasoning. Clinical decision<br>rules are evidence-based resources that provide probabilistic statements regarding the likelihood that a<br>condition exists if certain variables are met with regard to the prognosis of patients with specific<br>findings. Decision rules use mathematical models and are specific to certain situations, settings, and\/or<br>patient characteristics.<br>PTS: 1<br>Chapter 2. Genomic Assessment: Interpreting Findings and Formulating Differential Diagnosis<br>MULTIPLE CHOICE<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The first step in the genomic assessment of a patient is obtaining information regarding:<br>A. Family history<br>B. Environmental exposures<br>C. Lifestyle and behaviors<br>D. Current medications<br>ANS: A<br>A critical first step in any health assessment is collecting and interpreting the family health history<br>(FHH). FHH is key because it reflects shared genetic susceptibilities, shared environment, and<br>common behaviors (Yoon, Scheuner, &amp; Khoury, 2003).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Test Bank For Advanced Assessment Interpreting Findings and Formulating Differential Diagnoses 4th Edition Goolsby Chapter 1-22 | Complete Guide 2023 This is NOT a book!
