28
Q

case identification?

A

the operationalisation of the case definition how we identify who is/ not a case

29
Q

sensitivity of breast cancer?

A

proportion of women who correctly test positive

30
Q

specificity of breast screening?

A

proportion of women without breast cancer who correctly test negative

31
Q

positive predictive value?

A

likelihood patient with positive test result actually has the disease

32
Q

negative predictive value?

A

likelihood patient with negative test result does not have the disease

33
Q

as prevalence increase?

A

PPV will increase and NPV will decrease

34
Q

case control study?

A

groups with different outcomes (disease), useful for low prevalence conditions

35
Q

case control study strengths weakness?

A

evidence of cause-effect relationship
can identify multiple exposure
retrospective- cheaper/ shorter
good when disease is rare

weakness-cannot calculate prevalence incidence relative risk
less suitable for rare exposure
hard to ensure exposure occurred before onset of disease
retrospective data availability/quality
difficult to find suitable control group

36
Q

risk?

A

outcome of interest/ total number of all possible outcomes

37
Q

odds?

A

outcome of interest/ outcome not of interest

38
Q

odds ratio?

A

odds in exposed/ odds in non exposed

39
Q

why use odds ratio not relative risk?

A

starting population already is selected for disease, whereas relative risk noone started with the disease

OR will always overestimate RR

40
Q

what is chlorpromazine used to treat?

A

psychosis and sometimes anti-emetic

41
Q

antipsychotics are used for?

A

nausea vomiting, choreas and motor tics

42
Q

what can haloperidol be used for?

A

retractable hiccups

43
Q

if you introduce agonist with competitive antagonist?

A

you push the curve to the right so you need more drug for same amount of response

44
Q

naloxone binds to?

A

mu receptors antagonises morphine

45
Q

non competitive antagonist and agonist change curve?

A

decreasing max, lower curve

46
Q

why would you not give antipsychotic iv?

A

risk of infections

47
Q

in an emergency antipsychotic should be given?

A

intramuscular, lower dose due to avoiding first pass metabolism

48
Q

side effects of antipsychotics?

A

dyskinesia, make heart race

49
Q

antipsychotics in schizophrenia will help with?

A

positive psychotic symptoms (hallucination, delusions), but not negative apathy social withdrawal

50
Q

antipsychotics work by?

A

block d2 receptors
mesolimbic dompamine pathways- pleasure and reward
mesocortical dopamine- prefrontal cortex cognition working memory and decision making
nigrostriatal dopamine- purposeful movement
tubero infundibular dopamine- dopamine function inhibit prolactin release

51
Q

antipsychotic drug reactions include?

A

parkinsonian symptoms, dystonia, akathisia tardive dyskinesia
hyperprolactinaemia, sexual dysfunction, cardiovascular side effects hyperglycaemia and weight gain, hypotension and interference with temperature regulation, neuroleptic malignant syndrome, blood dyscrasias

52
Q

in mild/moderate psychotic symptoms elderly patients should?

A

not be given antipsychotics

53
Q

if you need to give an antipsychotic to elderly then?

A

reduce dose to half of adults

54
Q

chlorpromazine is indicated for?

A

schizophrenia, mania, severe anxiety, intractable hiccups, psychomotor agitation violence, relief of acute symptoms of psychoses, nausea and vomiting in palliative care

55
Q

blockade of d2 receptors leads to?

A

movement disorders

56
Q

blockade of cholinergic receptors leads to?

A

dry mouth

57
Q

blockade of alpha adrenergic receptors leads to?

A

tachycardia, arrhythmias,

58
Q

blockade of histaminergic receptors lead to?

A

pruritus itching

59
Q

blockade of histaminergic receptors lead to?

A

pruritus itching

60
Q

blockade of seretonergic receptors leads to issues with?

A

temperature, mood

61
Q

chlorpromazine is?

A

extensively bound to proteins and first pass metabolism

62
Q

anticholinergics help with?

A

reducing tremor, rigidity and sialorrhoea

63
Q

routine administration of antimuscarinics is inappropriate as it may worsen?

A

tardive dyskinesia

64
Q

dystonia?

A

neurological movement disorder with involuntary muscle contractions that cause slow repetitive movements or abnormal postures

65
Q

dykinesia?

A

involuntary, erratic writhing movements of face arms legs and trunk, fluid and dance like

66

akathisia?

A

restlessness, inability to remain still, may think it is the condition

67
Q

tardive dykinesia?

A

rhythmic involuntary movement of tongue face and jaw, develops on long term therapy or high dose

68
Q

1st generation usually cause?

A

hyperprolactinaemia whereas 2nd generation are partial agonist so reduce prolactin

69
Q

chlorpromazine works by?

A

depressant actions on CNS, alpha adrenergic blocking anticholinergic activities, inhibit dopamine, anti seretonin and weak anti histamine
