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






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






3. Divides the body into superior and inferior halves






4. One which has direct benefit to the patient






5. Can pass through cell membrane directly






6. By an IRB with or without the FDA


7. Genotyping to determine risk factors for disease






8. ?l/l0






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






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






11. Programmed cell death






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






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






14. Motion where the body part is extended toward the medial line (side- to- side)






15. Protocol submitted to IRB for approval






16. Trial of artificial kidneys






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






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






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






20. Heart rate x stroke volume






21. V diastole - V systole






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






23. Contains ribosomes - protein synthesis






24. Study of the impact of hepatitis infection






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






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






27. Further from the midline of the body






28. Closer to the head






29. Protein called tubulin






30. 2/3 diastolic pressure + 1/3 systolic pressure






31. Protein channels to pass through cell membrane






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






33. Toward the midline of the body






34. Passive and active transport






35. As a osmotic barrier; phospholipid bilayer






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






37. Front view (palms up)






38. Provide additional knowledge without direct benefit to the patient






39. Systolic pressure - diastolic pressure






40. Lower than for a PMA device


41. Nearer to the trunk of the body






42. Total lung capacity - vital capacity






43. <25% results in heart failure






44. Revisions returned to investigator






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






46. Considered a successful PMA






47. Temporary functions; do not require second surgery for removal






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






49. lower ion concentration of Na






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