Qbank Exam Flashcards
post epidural headache. what structure has been breached?
This patient presents with a severe headache after insertion of an epidural catheter. The most likely cause is
Must be Dura - an epidural is above the dura and not within the spinal chord proper. in an epidural- layers breached- suuptaspinus, interspinous, ligamentum flavum. Then in epidural space
POST DURAL HEADACHE
A spinal anaesthesia is within the CSF which lies in the sub arachnoid space- pierce the dura and arachnoid layer. suptaspinus, interspinous, ligamentum flavum. Then in epidural space - through dura and arachnoid. IN SUBARACHNOID SPACE- CSF back flash
The most likely cause is inadvertent puncture of the dura mater during the process of inserting the epidural needle and catheter. The intended target for an epidural catheter is the epidural space, a potential space that overlies the dura mater. If the dura mater is accidentally punctured during insertion of an epidural catheter, a post-dural headache can result. This can also sometimes occur following spinal anaesthesia (where the dura mater is intentionally pierced), however is much less common due to the smaller needles used.
Obstetric patients are at increased risk of post-dural puncture headache compared to non-obstetric patients receiving epidural analgesia.
The underlying pathophysiology is thought to involve leakage of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) through the hole in the dura mater. If CSF leaks at a rate greater than that of fluid production, CSF pressure falls, particularly at the level of the brain when the patient is standing in the upright position.
This also explains why the headache is improved when lying flat. The headache is generally localised to the frontal or occipital region and can be accompanied by other symptoms including neck stiffness, nausea, vertigo, photophobia and tinnitus. Treatment is generally supportive and most dural puncture headaches will have resolved after one week, although symptoms can occasionally linger for months. Severe headaches that interfere with a patient’s activities can be treated with an epidural blood patch, a treatment that involves injection of the patient’s own blood into the epidural space, effectively “plugging” the dural puncture site.
During epidural catheterisation, the interspinous ligament and ligamentum flavum are always traversed by the needle and catheter. The reason for this is that they lie along the path the needle must take in order to reach the epidural space. Piercing these structures is not associated with a headache.
The arachnoid mater is pierced during spinal anaesthesia when local anaesthetic agents and/or opioids are injected into the CSF. As this is an epidural anaesthetic, it is most unlikely that the arachnoid mater has been penetrated.
clear nasal discharge, hx trauma. no facial bruising. What to order?
- Beta-2-transferrin is a useful test in distinguishing the presence of cerebrospinal fluid in nasal discharge, which indicates a basal skull fracture.
ongoing nasal discharge following head trauma; it is important to rule out a base of skull fracture. Given his nasal discharge, the first-line test is to do a beta-2 transferrin analysis of the nasal discharge. This test provides a highly sensitive and selective, non-invasive test for the detection of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leakage in the case of head trauma. However, this test is not rapid and typically takes up to 24 hours to return a result. However, before that is done, with his increasing headache it would be prudent to admit the patient to hospital for clinical observation at least until the result returns. Likewise, if the patient had any neurological signs, or signs of infection, hospital admission would be wise.
Following this test, if it is positive, an imaging study such as a CT or MRI would be warranted to characterise the base of skull fracture.
wernickes and broccas - aphasia
Aphasia is a disorder where you have problems speaking or understanding what other people say.
BP - B-proc Broccas is for production of speech- ( broken sounding language)
Wernickes - WUP understanding and processing ( would just produce strange words)
to distinguish dementia from delerium what componene t of MMSE must be tested
Attention. In delirium attention is affected. In dementia attention is relatively well preserved
Deficits in attention are core to the diagnosis of delirium, whereas deficits in memory are more affected in dementia, both of these can be picked up in aspects of the MMSE
Attention: Test in MMSE- serial 7s and WORLD backward ( Look for ability to engage globally with attention)
Repitiion of no if and butts- language ( suspected Identifying objects such as a wristwatch is testing recognition and language. It could be affected if someone has visual agnosia, where someone is no longer able to recognise objects visually. This can be caused by insults/damage to the parietal lobe, such as in stroke.
Repeating after someone “no ifs, ands, or buts” is also used to test language impairment. The patient must be receptive to the sentence that you have stated and then repeat it back, testing language and repetition. This tests for impairments such as dysarthria or dysphagia, and requires the language areas of the brain, such as Broca’s, Wernicke’s and the arcuate fasciculus.
Getting a patient to write a sentence on a piece of paper is a good test of their basic writing skills. It can help to identify agraphia (loss of the ability to write), micrographia (small writing), which can be a sign of Parkinson’s disease and macrographia (large handwriting), which can be seen in patients with cerebellar disease and Huntington’s disease.
When is an ICD indicated (Implantable Cardiac Defibrillators) - implantable cardioverter
Congestive heart failure is a common long term complication following myocardial infarction. CHFrEF<40%
Implantable cardiac defibrillators are indicated in persistently depressed left ventricular ejection fraction at least 40 days following a myocardial infarction.
<35% with a stemi
Implantable cardioverters detect aberrant life-threatening rhythms and deliver an automated shock in response. They are used in both primary and secondary prophylaxis against sudden cardiac death.
Indications for ICD include:
-
ICD Indications [1]
- Primary prophylaxis
-
Congestive heart failure with certain criteria
- Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) <35% due to prior MI, at least 40 days post MI
- an ejection fraction <30% or
- LVEF <35% with NYHA class II or III heart failure,
- ejection fraction 30-40% >30 days after a STEMI in an asymptomatic patient.
-
Increased risk of life-threatening cardiac arrhythmias
- Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy
- Hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy
- Brugada syndrome
- Long QT syndrome
- Structural heart disease with sustained VT
- syncope of undetermined origin,
- inducible VT or VF at electrophysiologic study (EPS)
-
Congestive heart failure with certain criteria
- Primary prophylaxis
Secondary prophylaxis:
history of sudden cardiac arrest, ventricular flutter, or ventricular fibrillation
An ICD is indicated if, despite maximal medical therapy, the patient has persistently depressed left ventricular ejection fraction at least 40 days following a myocardial infarction. This is due to risk of developing another episode of VT.
trancutaneous pacing wire, pacemaker, LV assist device
Pacemakers are indicated where the heart’s conductivity is compromised, namely arrhythmias and heart block.
As the name implies, the temporary pacing wire is a temporary approach to pacing, used in situations such as the prevention and treatment of postoperative arrhythmias following coronary artery bypass.
a cardiac transplant or left ventricular assist device- classified as “end-stage” or NYHA Grade III-IV heart failure despite being symptomatic whilst on maximal medical therapy.
brugda syndrome- st elevation mimic
- Brugda pattern
- Pseudo right bundle branch block
Pseudo-RBBB (rSR in V1)

What does valsalva effect
Valsalva maneuver
- Definition: forceful exhalation against a closed airway
-
Technique: four phases
- Phase 1 (start strain) and phase 2 (continued strain): ↑ intrathoracic pressure → ↓ venous return/ventricular preload → ↓ cardiac output
- Phase 3 (release of strain) & phase 4 (recovery phase): ↓ intrathoracic pressure → ↓ afterload → ↑ stroke volume → ↑ cardiac output
-
Applications
- Treatment of supraventricular tachycardia (e.g., AVNRT)
- Evaluate conditions of the heart
- Augments heart sounds on physical exam (e.g., earlier click in mitral valve prolapse and louder murmur in hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy)
- Decreases heart sounds intensity (most valve stenosis or regurgitation murmurs)
- Test for hernia or varicocele (increased intraabdominal pressure → bulging)
- Diagnosis of urinary stress incontinence (urine leakage during the maneuver)
- Measure to normalize middle-ear pressure (e.g., in diving)
- Contraindications: include recent myocardial infarction, aortic stenosis, and glaucoma. [18]
A 68-year-old man is admitted for work-up of a single episode of slurred speech, which resolved after five minutes. There was no weakness or visual changes. His medical history includes hypertension and high cholesterol, for which he takes perindopril and atorvastatin. He has a 20 pack-year history.
On physical examination, blood pressure is 150/100mmHg and the pulse is regular. Cardiorespiratory examination is unremarkable.
A CT scan is performed, which excludes intracranial haemorrhage. There are no features of early ischaemia and no masses are identified.
Which one of the following is the most appropriate next investigation?
CT angiography or Carotoid artery Ultrasound
- Anterior circulation symptoms in suspected TIA or stroke require carotid artery imaging.
- CTA (MRA if renal impairment) , not carotoid artery ultrasound
The stem describes a patient with an episode of slurred speech on a background of significant cardiovascular disease. This should raise suspicion for a transient ischaemic attack (TIA) or stroke affecting the brain’s language centre, most commonly the middle cerebral artery (MCA) or anterior cerebral artery (ACA).
When anterior circulation symptoms are present, carotid pathology should be investigated with CT angiography (CTA) from the aortic arch to circle of Willis. CTA can be used to evaluate intracranial vessels as well as carotid and vertebral arteries for stenosis or occlusion, allowing assessment of the patient’s stroke risk. Findings will determine whether the patient meets criteria for admission versus assessment in TIA clinic.
MRI is the most sensitive technique for identification of minor stroke but is not required in the setting of resolved neurological deficits. MRI may be used to exclude ischaemic stroke if there are atypical symptoms, or in the evaluation for extended window thrombolysis.
Carotid artery ultrasound is not required as the CT angiogram will provide a detailed assessment of these vessels. If CT angiography were not available, carotid artery ultrasound could be used to investigate for carotid artery stenosis.

A posterior cerebral artery infarct (left-sided in this case) typically leads to the following clinical features:
– Contralateral sensory loss (due to lateral thalamic involvement)- right sided
– Contralateral homonymous hemianopsia with macular sparing (because the macula receives collateral vascular supply from the middle cerebral artery), rest of the occiptal lobe affetceted. Right homonomus hemianopia

migraine prophalaxis vs acute migraine treatment
acute migraine prophylaxis:
The following drugs can be used for migraine prophylaxis:
- Tricyclic antidepressants (amitriptyline, nortriptyline)
- Propranolol
- Sodium valproate
- Candesartan
- Verapamil
- Pizotifen
- Topiramate
In the case of the options provided, the most appropriate agent for migraine prophylaxis would be amitriptyline.
Propranolol is contraindicated as this woman suffers from asthma.
Sumatriptan and ibuprofen are not indicated for migraine prophylaxis, and rather can be used for the management of acute migraine.
Codeine is not indicated for migraine prophylaxis. In addition, sumatriptan and codeine are associated with medication-overuse headache with ongoing use. This can be a common exacerbating problem in patients with chronic headache syndromes.
Mx and treatment of choice in eusimophillic oesophagitis
Non-pharmacological treatment can include a six food elimination diet, which involves excluding the 6 common allergen foods (wheat, egg, dairy, soy, nuts and seafood) to see if they experience improvement. This should ideally be done with the assistance of a dietician, and can prove to be extremely difficult and limiting for patients. The first line pharmacological therapy is a proton pump inhibitor (PPI) such as omeprazole for 4-6 weeks to see if symptoms improve with repeat endoscopy to determine true eosinophilic oesophagitis from PPI-responsive oesophageal eosinophilia. Once repeat endoscopy confirms the diagnosis then dietary elimination strategies and topical steroids such as a budesonide slurry can be given.
cenario describes a food bolus occurring secondary to a likely new diagnosis of eosinophilic oesophagitis. The endoscopy shows the characteristic concentric rings associated with this condition and in addition, there is some mucosal damage at the site where the food bolus was impacted. A food bolus can occur in anyone, but most commonly there is an underlying condition that pre-disposes them to getting the bolus stuck. Conditions that can predispose include peptic oesophageal stricture, eosinophilic oesophagitis and oesophageal cancer.
Eosinophilic oesophagitis is believed to be similar in pathophysiology to atopic conditions such as asthma and it can be triggered by common food allergens (wheat, egg, dairy, soy, nuts, seafood). The diagnosis is made through the characteristic oesophageal rings and linear furrows macroscopically on endoscopy along with a biopsy showing raised eosinophils (>15 per high power field).
white out in right lower lobe
ddx for hilar enlargement
Right lower lobe collapse demonstrates a triangular opacity at the right lower zone, obstruction of right hemidiaphragm and inferior displacement of horizontal fissure. This is not seen on the chest x-ray above.
Hilar thickening describes enlargement of the hilum of the lung. This can be caused by tumour, sarcoidosis or infections causing enlarged hilar lymph nodes.
bullae on CXR
Bulla is defined as an air-filled space within the lung of >1cm, which develops due to emphysematous damage to the lung. The two most common causes of bullous emphysema are smoking (the likely cause in this case) and alpha-1-antitrysin deficiency. Bullous emphysema can be asymptomatic, but when severe such as seen in this x-ray it may present with symptoms of shortness of breath and cough.
Learning Points
Bulla are air-filled spaces in the lung or >1cm due to emphysematous damage.
Bullous emphysema on x-ray shows septations within the bulla, which helps to differentiate on chest x-ray compared to pneumothorax where there are no lung markings.
STEMI drugs
Options for initial MI treatment include “MONA-BASH”: Morphine, Oxygen, Nitroglycerin, Antiplatelet drugs (aspirin + ADP receptor inhibitor), Beta blockers, ACE inhibitors, Statins, and Heparin.
Statin- high dose Atorvastatin 80 mg PO every 24 hours

how to investigate short stature
Short stature (dwarfism) in children is defined as a height that is at least two standard deviations (SDs) below the mean for children of the same age and sex.
- In a normal distribution:
- one standard deviation above and below the mean includes about 68% of the sample, (16% either side of SD)
- 2 SDs include 95%, and (2.5% on either side)
- 3 SDs 99.7%. (0.15 % on either side)
If child is 3rd percentile for height- lies between 1 and 2 SD.
If child is 2nd percentile for height- lies between 2 and 3SD.
There are a number of causes of short stature in children, both benign and pathological.
- After a thorough history and examination, including
- calculation of mid-parental height and growth velocity
- a bone-age x-ray
can help in differentiating the cause of short stature based on the results.
Further diagnostic testing is indicated if a child’s growth is less than what might be expected given the average height of the parents.
An x-ray of the left hand and wrist are made to determine bone age (skeletal age), based on which the adult size of the child can be predicted.
In particular, it is useful for determining whether the short stature is due to familial short stature vs constitutional delay, both of which are normal benign variants in growth.
- Nonpathological variant short stature can be classified into three types: familial short stature (inherited short stature):
- children with familial short stature are short because they have short parents; the children have a normal bone age and are destined to be short like their parents
- constitutional delay of growth and puberty (an inherited pattern of short stature during childhood that is followed by a growth spurt during puberty ( late bloomers)
- The conventional definition of constitutional delay is a bone age at least 2 years less than chronologic age in combination with associated short stature, delayed puberty, or reaching final adult height later than peers
NOT GOING TO START AT SERUM GROWTH FACTOR AND IGF LEVELS
a skin lesion on the back of his right hand. Noticed this lesion develop over the last year and reports no symptoms of pain or itchiness. He has not tried any treatments for it.
On examination he has Fitzpatrick skin type 2. There is a 5mm white/yellowish scaly plaque with surrounding skin erythema on the dorsal aspect of his right hand on a background of sun damaged skin.
HOW TO INVESTIGATE/TREAT
Pre cursor to SCC- solar keratosis (same name as actinic keratosis)
Rough, scally, normally elderly. can have erythema. CAn develope sally horns.
Rx is with cryotherapy ( liquid nitrogen) . Horns possibly shaved.
Most solar keratosis respond well to cryotherapy with liquid nitrogen and this should be used first line unless contraindicated or not tolerated. The fact that he has a single lesion on the back of his hand the most immediate and appropriate initial management is cryotherapy if he is happy to tolerate this procedure. This can be done on the spot in clinic and follow up organised for further cryotherapy until the lesion has resolved.
Second line options include fluorouracil 5% (Efudix) or imiquimod 5% (Aldara) cream. This should be considered if a person has multiple solar keratosis or cannot tolerate cryotherapy. Patients must be warned about the inflammation that these treatments cause and that they need to be used for a few weeks to be effective.
When is each used
- Bolus of 1L normal saline
- Needle thoracostomy
- Large bore chest drain
- Bolus of 1L normal saline–unstable HD patient. If running fluid at 100ml per hour and not responsive. Need bolus!! ABCD first
- Needle thoracostomy–tension pnuemothorax
- Large bore chest drain- heamopneumotjorax
immuno suppressed individual with pnuemonia unresponsive to ABs- atypical cases
Use X-ray to guide eatiology
Most likely in an immuno comp/suppressed- fungal
Fungi such as pneumocystis must be considered in immunosuppresed patients presenting with pneumonia that does not respond to initial antibiotic therapy.
CXR of pnumocystis- reticular
( mesh/lace pattern), upper lobes, patchy
Diffuse, bilateral, symmetrical, interstitial infiltrates that are patchy infiltrate, extending from the perihilar region (butterfly pattern) , can lead to consolidations. also pneumatoceles (cycts, smallish)
(legionaires) presents with bilateral , patchy infiltrate,and pleural effusions and consolidations.
(Staph Aurues)- cause empyema or cavitary lesions; however, these would not be isolated without the presence of surrounding lobar infiltrate.
influenza pneumonia is likely to present with widespread changes on chest X-ray; patchy areas of peribronchial ground-glass opacity and airspace consolidation and poorly defined nodules are characteristic of viral pneumonia.
plural tap interpretation
Transudate is usually clear, has a decreased cell count, and has low levels of protein, albumin, and LDH.
Exudate typically appears cloudy, has an increased cell count, and has high levels of protein, albumin, and LDH.
MEAT has low glucose: Malignancy, Empyema, Arthritis (rheumatoid pleurisy), and Tuberculosis are causes of pulmonary effusion associated with low glucose levels.
Pleural fluid with a bloody appearance suggests a malignant etiology or hemothorax!
What conditions are Nickolsy sign + in?
Nikolsky’s sign is pathognomic for pemphigus Valgaris, toxic epidermal necrolysis, and staphylococcal scalded skin syndrome (SSSS). T
his sign basically differentiates intraepidermal blisters from subepidermal blisters.
Nikolsky sign is present in pemphigus vulgaris , toxic epidermal necrolysis, staphylococcal scalded skin syndrome, scalding, bullous impetigo, and Stevens-Johnson syndrome
Not present in bullous pemphigoid
toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN). About 90% of TENs cases are associated with a medication. Medications that are associated with TEN include allopurinol, antibiotics (e.g sulfonamide, penicillin, cephalosporin), antipsychotics/antiepileptics (e.g. carbamazepine, dilantin, lamotrigine), and NSAIDs (e.g piroxicam). If TEN is suspected, it is important to document an accurate medication timeline and cease all possible culprit drugs.
Staphylococcal scalded skin syndrome (SSSS) can appear similar clinically; however, mainly occurs in children and neonates caused by the release of Staphylococcus aureus epidermolytic toxins A and B. SSSS is an intradermal detachment pattern, as opposed to TEN which causes full-thickness epidermal (subepidermal) detachment (the positive Nikolsky sign).
The split is intradermal in the case of SSSS, while the split appears to be subepidermal in the case of TEN and SJS.
bullous vesicles
A 60-year-old man comes to the physician because of tender blisters on his arm and flank, worsening over the last few months. His medical history includes hypertension and hyperlipidemia. He is taking atorvastatin and hydrochlorothiazide for these conditions. Physical examination shows blisters and flaccid bullae; a few have ruptured, leaving red, sore, denuded areas. Pathologic examination reveals acantholysis and few lymphocytes.
Which of the following findings is most likely in this patient?
A. Eosinophils within bullae.
B. IgA deposits in the dermal papillae.
C. IgG antibody against hemi-desmosomes.
D. Negative Nikolsky sign.
E. Oral mucosal lesions.
- A. Eosinophils within bullae. ( bullous pemphigoid)
C. IgG antibody against hemi-desmosomes. ( bullous pemphigoid)
D. Negative Nikolsky sign. - B. IgA deposits in the dermal papillae. (dermatitis herpitiformis)
- E. Oral mucosal lesions. ( Pemphagoid valgaris: IgG antibodies to DG1 and DG3)
Choice A and C: An important condition on the differential diagnosis for autoimmune blistering conditions is bullous pemphigoid (BP). Histologically, prominent eosinophils within blisters would support bullous pemphigoid as the diagnosis. This condition presents with IgG autoantibodies against hemidesmosomes.
Hemidesmosomes anchor basal keratinocytes to the basement membrane. As a result, the epithelial layer lifts off the basement membrane producing a non-flaccid, tense sub-epidermal/sub-basal blister.
Unlike pemphigus vulgaris, bullous pemphigoid does not affect desmosome adhesion proteins. The associated antigens are: bullous pemphigoid antigen 1 and 2 (BPAG1, BPAG2). Patients with BP usually present with pruritus in the skin surrounding the blister rather than pain. Bullous pemphigoid can affect various areas of the skin but mucosal involvement is uncommon, unlike pemphigus. Pemphigoid also has a more favorable prognosis.
