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. One which has direct benefit to the patient






2. As a osmotic barrier; phospholipid bilayer






3. Revised version resubmitted to IRB for approval






4. 2/3 diastolic pressure + 1/3 systolic pressure






5. Food and drug administration - in charge of Regulating medical devices for their safety and effectiveness






6. Nearer to the trunk of the body






7. DNA synthesis






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






10. Clinical trial of new chemotherapy drug






11. Implantable pacemakers - bone implants






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






13. Gliding - pivot - saddle - ball- and- socket - condyloid - hinge






14. By an IRB with or without the FDA


15. Front view (palms up)






16. lower ion concentration of Na






17. Clinical evaluation of new devices are critical to prove safety


18. Replacement heart valves - stents - breast implants






19. Closer to the head






20. Considered a successful PMA






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






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






23. Product development protocol - alternatives to IDE and PMA processes for new devices






24. Heart rate x stroke volume






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






26. Flexible - light - can be translucent or not transparent - can be degradable or stable - easy to work with - inexpensive






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






28. Divides the body in posterior and anterior halves






29. Fluid- filled cavities and are most complex and varied types of joints






30. Consists of all nervous tissue that is enclosed by bone (brain and spinal cord)






31. V diastole - V systole






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






33. Growth phase 1






34. Safely and reliably - 'relatively' quickly - into raw materials of nature


35. Mitosis






36. Stiff and brittle - good insulators of heat and electricity - very high melting point - hard - wear resistant






37. Study of the impact of hepatitis infection






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






39. Elastic bandages - crutches - exam gloves - hand- held surgical instruments






40. Back view (palms up)






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






42. Translations - appropriate language - obtained in writing - and informed that they may abstain or withdraw from the study at any time






43. __________ of PDP are reported to the FDA






44. F/ A0






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






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






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






48. Ee


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






50. Consists of the nervous tissue that is not enclosed by bone
