(inspect the eyes) 
visual acuity 
visual fields 
external eye movements
fundi 
pupils
45
Q

what is the presentation of bacterial keratitis

A

rapid onset of pain, photophobia and decreased vision

46
Q

what does gluteus maximus do

A

extend the hip

47
Q

what does gluteus medius and minimus do

A

ABduct and medially rotate the hip

48
Q

what does the deep muscles of the hip do

A

laterally rotate the thigh and hip

49
Q

what is the nerve supply to the posterior thigh and what are its nerve roots

A

all supplied by the tibial division of sciatic nerve (L5,S1,S2) apart from short head of biceps femoris which is supplied by common fibular division of sciatic

50
Q

what is the nerve supply to the hamstring part of the adductor magnus

A

tibial nerve -L5,S1,S2

51
Q

what is the nerve supply to the short head of biceps

A

the common fibular nerve

52
Q

what are the nerve roots of the deep fibular nerve

A

L4,L5

53
Q

what are the nerve roots of the superficial fibular nerve

A

L5,S1,S2

54
Q

how do superficial lymph from the lower limb drain

A

follow saphenous veins, drain to superficial inguinal lymph nodes then to external iliac lymph nodes

55
Q

how do deep lymphatics from the lower limb drain

A

follow deep veins (popliteal lymph nodes) to deep inguinal nodes to external to common iliac to lumbar lymphatics

56
Q

what are the hip joint ligaments

A

iliofemoral, pubofemoral, ischiofemoral

they spiral from pelvis to femur

57
Q

what is the course of the obturator nerve

A

the obturator nerve, artery and vein enter the medial compartment of the thigh via the obturator foramen of the hip bone
the nerve then divides into anterior and posterior at the upper border of adductor brevis

58
Q

what is the neurovascular bundle superficial to deep

A 
tibial nerve (from sciatic) 
popliteal vein (posterior tibial)
popliteal artery (continuation of femoral)
lymphatics-popliteal lymph nodes are located along the popliteal vein in the fossa
59
Q

what does the ACL help prevent against

A

anterior displacement of the tibia on the femur and hyperextension of the knee joint
also resists internal rotation

60
Q

what does PCL prevent against

A

posterior displacement of the tibia on the femur and helps prevent against hyperflexion of the joint

A

the fibularis longus passess beneath the sole of the foot to reach the bases of the 1st metatarsal

64
Q

where does the fibular brevis attach distally

A

base of the 5th metatarsal

65
Q

what forms the anterior wall of the axilla

A

pec major

66
Q

what is the axillary vein a continuation of

A

the brachial vein, it becomes the axillary vein at the lower border of teres major

A

cuticle

inflammation of a serous membrane eg lungs, or pericardium

72
Q

what is there an accelerated risk for in SLE

IHD

73
Q

what can steroids cause in relation to the eye

A

cataracts and glaucoma

74
Q

what are the thyroid function results in sick euthyroid

A

everything may be low TSH, T3 and T4 (or TSH may be normal)

75
Q

where do amiloride and triamtere act

A

they block luminal Na channels on the apical membrane in late distal tubule and collecting ducts

76
Q

how do spironolactone and eplerenone wor

A

compete with aldosterone for binding to intracellular receptors causing decreased gene expression and reduced synthesis of a protein mediator that activated Na channels in apical

77
Q

what are aquaretics/vaptans

A

vasopressin receptor antagonists

78
Q

what do aquaretics/vaptans cause

A

an electrolyte free aquaresis, decrease urine osmolality
increase serum sodium
used in SIADH, CHF, cirrhosis
