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. Heart rate x stroke volume






2. Further from the midline of the body






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






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






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






6. Protein called tubulin






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






8. R-R interval






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


10. Number of subjects - safety assurances - privacy protection - informed consent documents






11. The most important aspect governing the ethics of human experimentation






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






13. Programmed cell death






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






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






16. 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






17. Passive and active transport






18. What specific steps are required before market approval






19. Considered a successful PMA






20. ?l/l0






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






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






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






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






25. Lower than for a PMA device


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






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






28. One which has direct benefit to the patient






29. Extracellular






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






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






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






33. Growth phase 2






34. Neared to the end of the limbs






35. G1 - s - g2 - m






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






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






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






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






40. Conflict of interest - competence - and age






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






42. Protein channels to pass through cell membrane






43. Cardiac output < demand






44. Metals - ceramics - polymers - biologics






45. Intracellular






46. By an IRB with or without the FDA


47. Clinical trial of new chemotherapy drug






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






49. Growth phase 1






50. Divides the body into superior and inferior halves
