Which of the following is not a risk factor for surfactant deficiency?
A. Elective Caesarean section
B. Intrauterine growth restriction
C. Male gender
D. Prematurity
E. Sepsis
The correct answer is B.
A preterm baby is defined as a baby born prior to 37 completed weeks gestation. Intrauterine growth restriction
describes a baby that is small for its corrected gestation. Preterm babies develop respiratory disease because of
adeficiency of surfactant production by the type II pneumocytes in the lung. Surfactant is required to reduce the
surface tension within the lungs (i.e. make them less stiff).
The outcome of premature babies has been significantly improved by the production of exogenous surfactant which
can be administered directly into the lungs via an endotracheal tube.
Causes of increased incidence of surfactant deficiency:
- Prematurity
- Male gender
- Sepsis
- Maternal diabetes
- 2nd twin
- Elective Caesarean section
A reduced incidence of surfactant deficiency is associated with:
- Female gender
- Prolonged rupture of membranes
- Maternal opiate use
- Intrauterine growth restriction
- Antenatal steroids

Medium Chain Acetyl Co-A Dehydrogenase Deficiency (MCADD an inborn error of metabolism where fat cannot be
broken down, resulting in low energy and hypoglycaemic episodes) screening has now also been approved and will
hopefully soon be nationalized.

- The natural history should be understood
- There should be a recognizable latent or early symptomatic stage
- There should be an accepted treatment recognized for the disease
- Treatment should be more effective if started early
- There should be a policy on who should be treated
- Diagnosis and treatment should be cost-effective

thrombosis and two previous miscarriages. She is sent to the early pregnancy assessment unit,
where ultrasound confirms miscarriage. What is the most likely underlying diagnosis?
A. Rheumatoid arthritis

Ideal contraception for a women with epilepsy :

D. POP
E. Implanon
Ans. B

A 34-year-old diabetic woman attends your hypertension clinic to discuss her blood pressure control.
She is currently following lifestyle advice and has started to lose weight and maintain good glycaemic
control. Her blood pressure was 155/93 mmHg at her last clinic appointment and is now 150/90
mmHg. She informs you she has recently become pregnant, which was planned, and intends to keep
the baby.
The most appropriate first-line therapy is:
A. ACE-inhibitor
B. Angiotensin II receptor blocker
C. Calcium channel blocker
D. Diuretics
E. -blocker
Ans. C
A calcium channel blocker is first-line therapy in a female who intends to/or has become pregnant, as well as in
patients who are of African-Caribbean descent (with an ACE inhibitor). In a normal patient following lifestyle therapy
ACE inhibitors are first line, calcium channel blockers are second line followed by a combination of diuretics and
calcium channel blockers. -blockers are used if despite the aforementioned therapy target blood pressure is not met.
If there are any contraindications or poor compliance with ACE inhibitors, angiotensin II receptor blockers are used
instead.

What organ removes old red blood cells?

D. Bones marrow
E. Lymphnods
Ans. B

Which statistical test requires a normal population distribution?


A. Chi-squared test
B. Mann-Whitney U test
C. Spearmans rank correlation
D. Analysis of variance
E. Wilcoxon rank-sum test
The answer is Chi-squared test
In appraising a study, it is important to assess the suitability of the research, design and methods
used in the context of a clinical condition. Which study will provide the best evidence for a diagnostic
test?
A. Randomised controlled trial
B. Cross-sectional study
C. Cohort study
D. Case reports
E. Cost-benefit study
The answer is cross-sectional study.
A researcher is looking at different types of kettles to find out which type of material is better in terms
of achieving a quick boiling temperature. The factors affecting the outcome are: the volume of water,
the type of material, the electric resistance and the shape of kettle. Which one of the following will be
the independent variable for the researcher's first research question?
A. Time to boil
B. Volume
C. Kettle material
D. Starting temperature
E. Shape of the kettle
The answer is the kettle material. B, D and E are the control variables and should be kept constant.
In order to make a valid test, A is the dependent or output variable. Therefore, C is the independent
or input variable.
You wish to investigate the time it takes to perform a caesarean section on women with and without
pre-eclampsia. At the end of the study you have two groups of women with the duration of caesarean
sections recorded for each. It can't be assumed that these are normally distributed. Which nonparametric statistic test would you use?
A. Chi-squared test
B. Linear regression analysis
C. Mann-Whitney U test
D. Pearsons R test
E. Students t-test
The answer is the Mann-Whitney U test. The first three options are suitable for normally distributed
data. The Chi-squared test is suitable for two-way tables. Since one of the two variables you wish to
look at (time of caesarean section) is continuous, a Chi-squared test is not suitable.
If TP = true positive and FP = false positive, what is represented by the equation TP / (TP + FP)?
A. Likelihood ratio

B. Negative predictive value


C. Positive predictive value
D. Sensitivity
E. Specificity
The answer is Positive predictive value. Positive predictive value is is the proportion of positive test
results that are true positives.
Diagnostic studies frequently use a receiver operating characteristic curve. What do the two axes of
the curve represent?
A. Accuracy versus 1/sensitivity
B. Positive likelihood ratio versus negative likelihood ratio
C. Positive predictive value versus negative predictive value
D. Sensitivity versus 1 - specificity
E. Sensitivity versus positive predictive value
The answer is Sensitivity versus 1/specificity. This is required to measure the area under the curve. It
is an extremely useful tool to assess a diagnostic or screening trial.
What are the three leading three causes of maternal death in the UK from the 2003-2005
Confidential Enquiry into Maternal and Child Health (CEMACH) report?
A. Infection, pre-eclampsia and ectopic pregnancy
B. Pre-eclampsia, haemorrhage and infection
C. Thrombosis, haemorrhage and fatty liver
D. Thrombosis, pre-eclampsia and amniotic fluid embolism
E. Thrombosis, pre-eclampsia and infection
Incorrect:
The answer is Thrombosis, pre-eclampsia and infection. The rates of maternal deaths are often
quoted per 100,000 maternities. The maternal mortality rates for the top three cause were;
thrombosis 1.94, pre-eclampsia 0.85 and infection 0.85. Interestingly, haemorrhage had a rate of
0.66, fatty liver 0.05 and ectopic pregnancy 0.47.

If the mean booking weight of an antenatal population of 125 women was 80 kg and the standard
error of the mean was 5 kg, what is the 95% confidence interval?
A. 40-120 kg
B. 60-100 kg
C. 65-95 kg
D. 70-90 kg
E. 75-85 kg
Incorrect:
The answer is 70-90 kg. The 95% confidence interval (CI) is 2 multiplied by the standard error of
the mean.
95% CI = mean 2 x SEM

95% CI = 80 2 x 5
95% CI = 70-90 kg
