Test your basic knowledge |

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. Three classes






2. Can pass through cell membrane directly






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


4. Provide additional knowledge without direct benefit to the patient






5. Oxygen moves from alveoli to the blood - and carbon dioxide moves from the blood to the air within alveoli






6. Growth phase 2






7. Contains ribosomes - protein synthesis






8. Back view (palms up)






9. G1 - s - g2 - m






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






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






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






13. Implantable pacemakers - bone implants






14. Closer to the feet






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






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






17. Hollow - cylindrical structures that aid in cell division by transporting chromosomes






18. Toward the midline of the body






19. lower ion concentration of Na






20. Intracellular






21. Mitosis






22. Divides the body into superior and inferior halves






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






24. Water adsorption - reduction of length - reduction of strength - weight loss






25. Divides the body in posterior and anterior halves






26. What specific steps are required before market approval






27. Because the devices may not state that they FDA- approved


28. Front view (palms up)






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






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






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






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






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






34. Total lung capacity - inspiratory capacity






35. Extracellular






36. Investigator






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






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






39. ?l/l0






40. Ee


41. Motion where the body part is extended from the medial line (side- to- side)






42. Revisions returned to investigator






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






44. Closer to the head






45. 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






46. Heart rate x stroke volume






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






48. Trial of artificial kidneys






49. Lower than for a PMA device


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