Introduction To Biomedical Engineering

Subject : engineering
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. Blood pressure cuffs - venipuncture materials (IVs - drawing blood - infusion pumps) - powered wheelchairs - surgical drapes






2. Strong and ductile - good conductor of heat and electricity - high melting point - high density - shiny and reflective - numerous






3. Investigator






4. Investigational device exemption - allows companies and researches to use their new devices/technology for investigational use only - used to Generate data before PMA's






5. Basic functional unit of skeletal muscles






6. Divides the body into superior and inferior halves






7. <25% results in heart failure






8. Premarket approval - Are licenses to an individual company to market a specific device - require a lot of time and money to prove safety and effectiveness






9. Evaluations based on adherence to regulations and assurances of patient safety; may also suggest scientific improvements






10. Motion where angle of joint is decreased in the sagittal plane






11. Protocol submitted to IRB for approval






12. Divides the body in posterior and anterior halves






13. Closer to the feet






14. Toward the midline of the body






15. Closer to the head






16. Institutional review board - consider the ethical aspects - to evaluate - approve - and monitor proposals to perform human research






17. Vertical planes passing through the body parallel to the midsagittal plane






18. Systolic pressure - diastolic pressure






19. Revisions returned to investigator






20. Study of the impact of hepatitis infection






21. Divides the body in left and right halves; aka median plane






22. R-R interval






23. Deliver oxygenated blood to cardiac tissue - derive oxygenated blood via Sinuses of Valsalva - fill with blood on diastole - heart muscle relaxes during diastole






24. Motion where angle of joint is increased in the sagittal plane






25. Minors are not legally allowed to consent without approval from guardian






26. Requires energy; move from low concentration to high concentration






27. ATP production - Kreb's cycle - contains two membranes






28. 'substantial equivalence' to another approved and safe device to technology currently on the market






29. Implantable pacemakers - bone implants






30. Rotational movement of forearm such that the palm is facing posterior when standing in anatomic position






31. Rotational movement of forearm such that the palm is facing anterior when standing in anatomic position






32. Further from the midline of the body






33. ?l/l0






34. Normal cells undergo apoptosis when damaged - but the ______ causes these cells to survive and multiply






35. Three classes






36. Programmed cell death






37. Provide additional knowledge without direct benefit to the patient






38. V diastole - V systole






39. Intracellular






40. __________ of PDP are reported to the FDA






41. No significant risk; all are exempt from needing FDA registration






42. PMA - 510(k) notification - IDE - PDP






43. Serious level of risk; implants or necessary to sustain life; require PMA






44. As the lung grows into the pleural cavity - it picks of a layer of this






45. As a osmotic barrier; phospholipid bilayer






46. Can pass through cell membrane directly






47. Front view (palms up)






48. Initiates human research study protocol - It's a document that outlines in detail scientific purpose of study - methods used - possible risks to patient - etc






49. DNA synthesis






50. Involves carries - channels - or direct diffusion from high concentration to low concentration
