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






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






3. Heart rate x stroke volume






4. Replacement heart valves - stents - breast implants






5. Moderate risk to the user; most require 510(k)






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






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






8. Closer to the feet






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






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






11. Toward the midline of the body






12. F/ A0






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






14. Front view (palms up)






15. Considered a successful PMA






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






17. 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






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






19. Cardiac output < demand






20. DNA synthesis






21. Implantable pacemakers - bone implants






22. <25% results in heart failure






23. Metals - ceramics - polymers - biologics






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






25. Conflict of interest - competence - and age






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






27. Revisions returned to investigator






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






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






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






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






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






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






34. R-R interval






35. Systolic pressure - diastolic pressure






36. Mitosis






37. Total lung capacity - inspiratory capacity






38. Further from the midline of the body






39. Total lung capacity - vital capacity






40. Provide additional knowledge without direct benefit to the patient






41. Closer to the head






42. Divides the body in posterior and anterior halves






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






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






45. Delivers and stores proteins and lipids






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






47. Trial of artificial kidneys






48. V diastole - V systole






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


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