BMET Course 104 Clinical Applications
QUESTIONS WITH 100% CORRECT
ANSWERS, GRADED A+
Aspirate - CORRECT ANSWER-To draw by suction
Catheter - CORRECT ANSWER-Tubular tip connected to a suction hose for
insertion into canals, passageways, or body cavities
Evacuate - CORRECT ANSWER-To remove the contents of a body cavity or
organ
Matter - CORRECT ANSWER-Any solid, liquid, or gas that has mass and
occupies space
Reed Valve - CORRECT ANSWER-type of check valve that restricts flow to a
single direction, opening and closing under changing pressure on each face
Yankauer - CORRECT ANSWER-A hand held suctioning tool made of metal or
firm plastic with tip consisting of a large opening surrounded by a bulbous head
Rotary-vane - CORRECT ANSWER-As rotation continues, the space between
the vanes expand creating a negative pressure that draws air through the input port
applying suction to the patient circuit
Diaphragm - CORRECT ANSWER-As this is pulled back, a vacuum is
developed drawing air through the intake valve while pulling the discharge valve closed
Cylinder Piston - CORRECT ANSWER-Creates suction similar diaphragm
pumps except that piston slides up and down inside of a cylinder
Venturi - CORRECT ANSWER-Relies on the flow of compressed gas, or liquid
through a narrowed chamber expanding to a larger passage that creates suction from a
port located at the point of expansion
Peristaltic - CORRECT ANSWER-Commonly referred to as a tube rotor pump,
develops a vacuum through positive pressure displacement

pressure

Moisture Trap/Filter - CORRECT ANSWER -Traps moisture and oils and filters

out small particles of dirt and debris exiting the pressure developing mechanism

Sequential Compression Device (SCD) - CORRECT ANSWER -Use intermittent

pneumatic compression to help prevent blood clots in the deep veins of the legs

Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP) - CORRECT ANSWER -Maintains

a positive pressure on the airway for the purpose of splinting it open during rest

Continuous Ultrasound - CORRECT ANSWER -Ultrasonic vibrations that are

consistently ON during treatment

Effective Radiating Area (ERA) - CORRECT ANSWER -Area of the ultrasonic

Ambient Temperature - CORRECT ANSWER -The temperature of the

surrounding outside air

Compression - CORRECT ANSWER -Reduction of refrigerant volume to

increase pressure of a gas

Expansion - CORRECT ANSWER -Reduction of pressure on a refrigerant that

lowers the boiling point so heat can be absorbed

Heat - CORRECT ANSWER -Energy that can be moved from one point to

another and exists at temperatures above absolute zero

Refrigerant - CORRECT ANSWER -Liquid used in refrigeration systems
