Cognitive biases in clinical reasoning Flashcard Deck - 10 Cards

Flashcard 1: What effect does the hand grip maneuver have on the intensity of MR, AR, and VSD murmurs?_____

Answer: Increased intensity

Flashcard 2: In Legg-Calve-Perthes, will you often observe pathology on the initial x-ray?_____

Answer: No

Flashcard 3: Which heart sounds are characteristically heard at the apex (using the bell in the left lateral decubitus position) in a patient with hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM)?

Answer: S4 and Mid-systolic murmur

Extra: In Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy (HOCM), the S4 gallop reflects atrial contraction into a stiff, hypertrophied left ventricle. The mid-systolic murmur is caused by dynamic left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction. Both are best heard at the apex or left lower sternal border, often using the bell in the left lateral decubitus position for the S4.

Flashcard 4: Brain arteriovenous malformations are developmental vascular lesions that present with intracranial _____, seizure, headache, or focal neurologic deficits

Answer: hemorrhage

Flashcard 5: What are the clinical manifestations and genetic basis of Tuberous Sclerosis?

Answer: Clinical features: Cutaneous angiofibromas (adenoma sebaceum), hypomelanotic macules (ash-leaf spots), Shagreen patches, seizures, intellectual disability, retinal hamartomas, cortical tubers, subependymal giant cell astrocytomas (SEGA), renal angiomyolipomas, and cardiac rhabdomyomas.::List the clinical features and genetics of Tuberous Sclerosis.

Extra: Genetics: Autosomal Dominant (AD) with variable expressivity; mutations in TSC1 (hamartin) or TSC2 (tuberin) genes.

Flashcard 6: What is the most common clinical application for an ELISA?

Answer: detection of antibodies in patient blood sample

Flashcard 7: accuracy (diagnostic testing)

Answer: the "trueness" of a test's results

Flashcard 8: precision (diagnostic testing)

Answer: consistency and reproducibility of a test's results

Flashcard 9: What is the next step in diagnosis for a patient with new-onset epigastric pain, nausea, hypotension, bradycardia and T-wave inversions in leads II, III, aVF? _____

Answer: Right-sided precordial ECG

Extra: Watch Stable Angina, Vasospastic Angina, & Acute Coronary Syndromes (UA, NSTEMI, STEMI) [https://dashboard.sketchy.com/study/medical/courses/medical-pathophysiology/units/medical-pathophysiology-cardiac/videos/medical-pathophysiology-cardiac-ischemic-heart-disease-stable-angina-vasospastic-angina-and-acute-coronary-syndromes-ua-nstemi-stemi?utm_source=anki&utm_medium=partnership&utm_campaign=february_update&utm_content=medical] https://onlinemeded.org/spa/cardiac?ref=anki
