CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION TO PMLS Flashcards
Application of procedures, information, and devices to develop highly sophisticated solutions to medical problems or issues as the prevention of disease or the promotion and monitoring or good health.
MEDICAL LABORATORY SCIENCE
Refers to the diagnostic or therapeutic application of science and technology to improve the management of health conditions; therefore, we can say that it combines the challenges of medicine, the basic sciences of biology and chemistry, it is an applied science as it employs scientific investigation to come up with a diagnostic finding and the clinical sciences into a very satisfying professional career.
MEDICAL LABORATORY SCIENCE
MLS employs the basic sciences of _________ and _______. It is an applied science as it employs __________ to come up with a diagnostic finding and the clinical sciences into a very satisfying professional careers.
biology and Chemistry ; scientific investigation
MLS is an ________ as it employs scientific investigation to come up with a diagnostic findings.
Applied Science
It is an applied science as it employs scientific investigation to come up with a diagnostic finding.
Medical Laboratory Science
the work MLS do can help diagnose _______ of our patients, with different laboratory tests that we perform. Thus calling ourselves “_________”.
60-70Medical Investigators
MLS need to be ________ and ______.
Accurate and Precise
MLS are __________ for each result that is being send out.
Accountable
To analyze chem reactions, examine blood and other body
fluids microscopically, and perform pre-transfusion testing on patients and donors, we need to learn ___________________.
State of the art instrumentation
Use sophisticated biomedical technologies and scientific methodologies to test patient blood or tissues and body fluids.
the clinical laboratory
what are the 6 types of clinical laboratory.
Clinical Chemistry
Hematology
Clinical Microscopy
Immunology and Immunohematology
Histopathology
Microbiology and Molecular Biology
what type of clinical laboratory that do test and chemical analysis like determining concentration of compounds in our body such as glucose, cholesterol, vitamins, electrolytes, proteins, drugs and other analytes.
Clinical chemistry
in the clincal chemistry, it uses sophisticated biomedical technologies and scientific methodologies to test patient blood or tissues and body fluids _______, ________, _______ , _______, _______, ______ and ________. what are these bodily fluids being tested?
glucose, cholesterol, vitamins, electrolytes, proteins, drugs and other analytes
a clinical laboratory where blood microscopic examinations are conducted.
Hematology
a clinical laboratory where it examines the urine and other body fluids microscopically
Clinical Microscopy
a type of clinical laboratory where antigen-antibody testing and blood products for transfusion.
Immunology and immunohematology
it is where we determine the appropriate blood products that can be transfused to.
immunohematology
what is processed in immunohematology?
Blood transfusions
it uses antigen or antibody testing for determination of infections
Immunology and serology
it is the clinical study of biopsy and tissues.
Histopathology
What is histopathology?
it is the study of biopsy and tissues
Studies the tissues obtained through biopsies on a cellular
level, testing for cancer and metastasis in your cells
Histopathology
these are the components of the Microbiology and molecular biology?
bacteria, parasites and viruses.
Studies the cellular and chemical components of bacteria, parasites, and viruses, etc., where we use state of the art
instrumentations to generate accurate results
