Bio Med Unit 4 Test Flashcards
What are the 6 design brief categories?
Patient care, preventive care, therapeutics, medications, medical devices, and informational technology
What are the two stem cell genetic/ engineering organ generation processes?
Bio printing and xenotransplantation
Regenerative medicine
Using plants to create replacement tissues and organs
Which organs can be donated from a living donor?
A kidney, part of a liver, lung, pancreas, intestine, and some tissues
Which blood types can type O donors donate to?
All blood types
Which blood types can type AB donors donate to?
Only type AB
Which blood types can type A donors donate to?
Type A and AB
Which blood types can type B donors donate to?
Type B and AB
What are the two components that are evaluated when considering a match for organ donation?
Blood type and tissue type
Tissue typing (HLA typing)
Human leukocyte antigen typing is used to determine matches for organ donation
How many HLAs are there and how does it determine donation success?
There are 6 antigens and the more matches between the donor and the recipient, the more likely the immune system will not attack the new cells
Xenotransplantation
Transplanting organs from another living source into a human
What is a scaffold?
A framework in the shape of a body part that cells are applied to and grow on
Ghost organs
A type of xenotransplantation when a donated organ has all cells removed and is replaced with the patient’s cells
Bioprinting
3D printing an organ scaffold and adding patient cells
Stem cells
Unspecialized cells that can be stimulated by hormones and chemicals to become a specific cell type
Decellurization
Cells are removed from an organ, leaving behind a extracellular matrix (ECM) structure
Which organs can be donated (10)?
Eyes, skin, lungs, heart and heart valves, kidneys, pancreas, small intestine, liver, bones and bone marrow, and tendons
Strategies to stop injury, illness, or disease from occuring
Primary prevention
Strategies for early detection, diagnosis, and treatment to prevent development
Secondary prevention
Strategies to support and rehabilitate people with serious illness
Tertiary prevention
Organs in order in GI tract
oral cavity, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, and large intestine
Which organ produces bile?
Liver
Which organ stores bile?
Gall bladder
