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






2. Contains ribosomes - protein synthesis






3. Protocol submitted to IRB for approval






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






5. Trial of artificial kidneys






6. Consent should be attained from the subject by a person NOT engaged in the research and completely independent






7. Back view (palms up)






8. G1 - s - g2 - m






9. Injury with tissue - bleeding and clotting (coagulation cascade) - acute inflammation - pink granulation tissues replaces matrix - tissue is remodeled back to original state






10. When physical or mental incapacity makes it impossible to acquire informed consent - permission from the legal guardian must be granted






11. Gene which protects a cell from becoming cancerous; stops cell cycle if need DNA repair






12. Delivers and stores proteins and lipids






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






14. Extracellular






15. Divides the body in posterior and anterior halves






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






17. Front view (palms up)






18. Passive and active transport






19. Nearer to the trunk of the body

24. Neared to the end of the limbs






25. Investigator






26. Protein called tubulin






27. ?l/l0






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






29. What specific steps are required before market approval






30. Replacement heart valves - stents - breast implants






31. Revisions returned to investigator






32. Mitosis






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






34. Systolic pressure - diastolic pressure






35. Can pass through cell membrane directly






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






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

41. Genotyping to determine risk factors for disease






42. Revised version resubmitted to IRB for approval






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






44. 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






45. Basic functional unit of skeletal muscles






46. Conflict of interest - competence - and age
