These are 100 BCQs which came in previous MRCP papers, key is also given in the last for correct answer, solve it right now.. MRCP(UK) Part 1 Examination Sample Questions These 100 best of five questions have all been used in previous diets of the MRCP(UK) Part 1 Examination. The proportion of questions from each medical specialty and the clinical sciences is similar to those found in an MRCP(UK) Part 1 paper. The answer keys are available on a separate page. This allows candidates to attempt the questions under exam conditions if they wish. Based on the previous performance of the questions a minimum of 64 correct answers would be required to pass this paper. MRCP(UK)-Part-1-Sample-Questions-web Sample Questions 1. A 52-year-old man presented with the sudden onset of severe anterior chest pain. An acute myocardial infarction was suspected and subsequently confirmed by serum troponin concentration and ECG. Following admission, he was noted to be hypotensive with oliguria. A Swan–Ganz catheter was inserted. The right atrial pressure was found to be 20 mmHg (4–8) and the indirect left atrial mean pressure (wedge) was 2 mmHg (5–10). What is the most likely explanation for these pressure measurements? A acute left ventricular failure B acute mitral regurgitation C hypovolaemia D pericardial tamponade E right ventricular failure 2. A 50-year-old woman presented with a 24-hour history of palpitations. An ECG revealed atrial fibrillation with a ventricular rate of 130 beats per minute. Which drug is most likely to restore sinus rhythm? A adenosine B bisoprolol C digoxin D flecainide E verapamil 3. A 35-year-old woman with early stage IV chronic kidney disease (glomerular filtration rate 15– 29 mL/min) was being considered for erythropoietin therapy. On examination, her blood pressure was 140/90 mmHg and she had an arteriovenous fistula in situ for planned haemodialysis. Investigations: haemoglobin 95 g/L (115–165) MCV 84 fL (80–96) What is the most likely outcome of erythropoietin therapy? A improved blood pressure control B improved exercise tolerance C increased ventricular hypertrophy D reduced likelihood of red cell aplasia E stabilisation of renal function 4. A 51-year-old woman presented with a 2-year history of intermittent episodes of arthralgia, rash and fevers. She complained of increasing fatigue, breathlessness and swollen ankles over the previous 6 months. MRCP(UK)-Part-1-Sample-Questions-web On examination, she had a purpuric rash on the lower extremities and a right-sided pleural effusion. Urinalysis showed protein 3+, blood 1+. Investigations: erythrocyte sedimentation rate 140 mm/1st h (
