Test your basic knowledge |

Subject : health-sciences
Instructions:
  • Answer 50 questions in 15 minutes.
  • If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
  • Match each statement with the correct term.
  • Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.

This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.
1. Tumor cell to elicit and immune response






2. Given at the same time b/c different mechanisms of action that lower the amount of drugs given-> decrease toxicity






3. Spread of cancer to other organs. Eg:- in colon ->muscularis-> into ovaries






4. Strictly regulated -Predetermined to differentiate into specific cell type -Controlled cell death (apoptosis) & proliferation -Contact inhibition -Cell surface adherence-Inability to wander






5. What cell is is? - How agressive?






6. Final stage -Increased growth rate of tumor -Increased invasiveness -Detectable mass= 1 cm and 1 billion cells

15. To prevent future development in high risk areas






16. Cells are very abnormal - Moderately differentiated






17. Migration and proliferation of endothelial cells






18. Most common form - Linear accelerator generates ionizing radiation






19. Cancer cells that go to other parts of the body






20. What cell is is? - How agressive?






21. Tumor cell to elicit and immune response






22. Different drugs to affect periods of cell cycle






23. Grade 1-4 - grade by cell when we can't tell where its from






24. Cancer stays in one place






25. Spread of cancer to other organs. Eg:- in colon ->muscularis-> into ovaries






26. Begin in the cells of the immune system






27. Starts in blood forming tissue such as bone marrow






28. Migration and proliferation of endothelial cells






29. Fibrin mesh work protection from host's immune cells






30. To prevent future development in high risk areas






31. Mutation - Oncogenes - Tumor suppressor genes






32. The cancer is found in two or more lymph node regions on one side of the diaphram






33. Stage 1: Early disease - Stage 2: Locally advanced disease - Stage 3: Advanced disease - Stage 4: widespread disease

34. Relieve pain - Relieve obstruction






35. 1st to occur because heart and brain are very important organs






36. Begins in bone - cartilage - fat - muscle - blood vessels - or other connective or supportive tissue






37. Education related to treatment & side effects -Ongoing skin assessment-Management of skin irritations -Assessment for fatigue- most common and disabling side effect -Education about fatigue management -rest periods-mild exercise -Emotional support du






38. The ER and PR status of the tumor -The measures of proliferative capacity of the tumor -Her2/neu gene amplification.






39. The disease involves lymph nodes both above & below the diaphragm.






40. The disease involves lymph nodes both above & below the diaphragm.






41. Given at the same time b/c different mechanisms of action that lower the amount of drugs given-> decrease toxicity






42. Depending upon site -skin: dry - itchy - red and irritated - desquamation (skin peeling) -Heart -Bowel & bladder -skin erythema -hyper pigmentation -Itching -Fatigue -Dry or moist desquamation -Edema -Loss of sensation -Pain






43. Cells more abnormal - moderately differentiated






44. -Defect in differentiation-Secrete enzyme to dissolve binding protein fibronectin- no cell surface adherence -Loss of ability to stop dividing- uncontrolled proliferation-Doubling time (exponential growth)-Loss of cell borders -ability to form new bl






45. Post surgery or chemotherapy - Goal to reduce risk of local recurrence






46. Lung - Lyrnyx - Esophagus - pancreas - mouth - stomach - leukemia - bladder - kidney - cervix






47. Begins in the skin or in tissues that line or cover internal organs






48. Immediate post-Op assessments and cares (per hospital policy) -Pain management -Monitor for complications (e.g. infection) -Reinforce post-op self-cares (tubes - site - etc)-Assess psychosocial response -Assess for body image fears
