This document contains two sections - a post test on the appendix and a pre test on the pancreas. The post test on the appendix contains 7 multiple choice questions testing knowledge about acute appendicitis, including the drug of choice to treat anaerobic organisms, the most common presenting symptom, a differential diagnosis in children, and subgroups where the diagnosis is difficult. The pre test on the pancreas contains 5 multiple choice questions testing knowledge about pancreatic insufficiency, diagnostic exams for acute pancreatitis, causes of hyperglycemia, inhibitors of pancreatic secretion, and activators of trypsinogen.
