Question
Answer
show maintenance, personnel training, analyzer cost  
🗑
lab characteristics used to justify the cost of automation   show
🗑
show electronic orders, standing orders, generated bar-codes with important patient info  
🗑
show P-tube, track systems  
🗑
show LIS  
🗑
show can go directly into clinician electronically, results can go to medical records to be apart of patients chart  
🗑
Maintenance of quality across all aspects of the testing process   show
🗑
show to evaluate the system and prevent errors  
🗑
show Pre-analytical because there's less automation for this and we see an increase with human error  
🗑
show provides us with insight on how the analyzers are functioning and the accuracy of the test results  
🗑
why liquid QC over lyophilized   show
🗑
analyzed by the manufacturer so the concentration of the analyses they contain is known   show
🗑
concentration of the analyses is unknown and must be determined by the lab   show
🗑
show maintenance is done, something is suspected to be wrong, reagent lot change, major component replacement  
🗑
A sudden change due to an analyzer malfunction   show
🗑
a gradual change due to reagent deterioration   show
🗑
show rerun once, ask questions, contact service technician if problem is not resolved  
🗑
concentration of a substance is proportional to the amount of light absorbed   show
🗑
measures the intensity of light at selected wavelength   show
🗑
two factors that quantitative measurement using absorbance spectrophotometry depend on   show
🗑
examples of monochromator in modern technology   show
🗑
show barrier layer cell, photomultiplier tubes  
🗑
measure light reflected from the surface of a colorimetric reaction   show
🗑
Name the layers in dry-slide technology   show
🗑
show spreading layer  
🗑
show scavenger layer  
🗑
show reagent layer  
🗑
reacted sample collects for spectral analysis   show
🗑
show support  
🗑
measures the absorption of light by an element in its ground state   show
🗑
show determining blood lead levels  
🗑
Valence electrons from some substances are able to absorb light energy, exciting the electron, electron returns to ground state and gives up energy as a photon of light which results in a fluorescence emission   show
🗑
show fluorochromes/fluorophores  
🗑
commonly used fluorescent dye in the lab   show
🗑
two ways light scatter is measured   show
🗑
show nephelometry because more light is scattered than transmitted  
🗑
show turbidimetry  
🗑
test done by turbidimetry   show
🗑
the measurement of scattered light by a particulate solution   show
🗑
lab test performed by nephelometry   show
🗑
impedance-based technology that is used to analyze cells   show
🗑
Four main component of a flow cell cytometer   show
🗑
show hydrodynamic focusing  
🗑
show lenses collect light and focus it on a photodiode and the light is converted to electrical current; measures cell size  
🗑
show uses wavelength-specific mirrors and filters to transmit light specific to the wavelength of the dye that is used; measures cell complexity  
🗑
lab test performed by flow cytometry   show
🗑
show scintillation counter  
🗑
disadvantages of RIA   show
🗑
show Chemiluminescence  
🗑
what are immunoassays used to measure   show
🗑
show homogenous assay  
🗑
show heterogenous assay  
🗑
3 categories of immunoassay labels   show
🗑
show ionizing and non  
🗑
examples of ionizing radiation   show
🗑
show x-rays and gamma  
🗑
show electromagnetic carries no charge while particulate are charged particles (alpha and beta)  
🗑
show unbalanced protons and neutrons = unstable nucleus  
🗑
Three types of decay an atom can undergo   show
🗑
unstable nucleus gives up 2 protons and 2 neutrons which leads to an atomic mass and number change   show
🗑
show beta  
🗑
what would stop alpha radiation   show
🗑
what would stop beta radiation   show
🗑
what would stop gamma radiation   show
🗑
show gamma  
🗑
four examples of how we use radiation in the clinical lab   show
🗑
what assay is used in the echo analyzer   show
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
