What is the difference between passive, semi-active and active scavenging system?
A.
Passive is: The most reliable with the least maintenance solution as a scavenging system.
Semi-active is: An interface connected to each anesthesia machine.
Active is: A system consisting of an interface on each anesthesia machine connected to a blower assembly.
B.
Passive is: Charcoal filters and a tube connecting the anesthesia machine to the exterior of the building.
Semi-active is: A blower assembly system with scavenger interfaces at every anesthesia machine that allow the unused gases during anesthesia to be evacuated.
Active is: One central vacuum pump and a scavenger interface for each anesthesia machine.
C.
Passive is: One central vacuum pump and a scavenger interface for each anesthesia machine.
Semi-active is: A blower assembly system that allows the gases used during anesthesia to be evacuated.
Active is: charcoal filters and a tube connecting the anesthesia machine to the exterior of the building.
The correct answer is B

How often should you clean your autoclave with the Chamber Brite™ ?
A. Once a year
B. Every 6 months or 250 cycles
C. Every 3 months or 125 cycles
D. Every month or 40 cycles
E. Every week or 20 cycles
F. On everyday use
The correct answer is C
For better results, clean autoclave every 20 cycles or once a week.
What do you measure when using a Doppler
A. Heart Rate
B. Systolic blood pressure
C. Blood flow
D. Mean blood pressure
The correct answer is C
A Doppler only detects flow and makes sounds when the arterial flow changes during each heartbeat. When measuring blood pressure with a Doppler, the principle is to occlude arterial blood flow by inflating a cuff and then deflating it until the flow goes back to normal. When the pressure in the cuff is just below the systolic blood pressure, blood flow can pass the cuff and is detected by the Doppler probe. Heart rate can be calculated with the sounds of the Doppler.
How often should you lubricate the handpiece of your dental unit?
A. Every day of use
B. After each use
C. After 10 uses
The correct answer is A
It is essential to lubricate the high speed and low speed every day of use to prolong their life. If there is a lack of lubrication, the ball bearing may become damaged and then seize. However, if you sterilize your handpieces, it is important to lubricate after each sterilization.
How long can a vaporizer calibration take?
A. 15 minutes
B. 1 day
C. 5 days
D. 8 days
The correct answer is C
In order to recalibrate the thermostat, it must be done in a temperature controlled environment. Adjustments are made at precise temperatures and rechecked with a minimum pause of 4 hours between adjustments to confirm stability. Several subsequent identical readings are required before considering the calibration to be valid. This process may take up to 5 days.
How often should I evaluate my
X-ray protective clothing?
A. Before each use
B. Monthly
C. Annually
D. Never, you need to change it every 10 years
The correct answer is C
An x-ray of each garment is highly recommended once a year or when a fault is suspected.
Can you find the right affirmations on the Universal F circuit and the Coaxial circuit?
A. The Universal F circuit has 2 independent connections, one for inspiration and one for expiration. The Coaxial circuit increases breathing resistance of the patient.
B. When the patient exhales into the Universal F circuit and the gas changes direction, it increases breathing resistance. The Coaxial circuit has 2 independent connections one for inspiration one for expiration.
C. A disadvantage of the Universal F circuit is that it is possible to connect the circuits on the wrong ports. One of the advantages of the Universal F circuit and the Coaxial circuit is that when the patient exhales the warmer exhaled gas partially preheat the inhaled gases.
D. The Coaxial circuit consists of a tube within a tube. One goes on the inhalation port and the other one on the exhalation port. The inhalation travels through the center tubes up to the patient. The Universal F circuit has less breathing resistance compared to the Coaxial circuit.
The correct answer is C
A disadvantage of the Universal F circuit is that it is very possible to connect the circuits on the wrong ports. One of the advantages of the Universal F circuit and the Coaxial circuit is that when the patient exhaled the warmer exhale gas partially preheat the inhale gases.
What can the Moduflex™ Bain
