Endoscopy - -Visual examination of the interior structures of the body is called:
-Arthroscope - -An example of a rigid endoscope is a/an:
-Insertion tube - -The portion of the flexible endoscope that enters the body is called:
-bronchoscope - -examines air passages in the lungs
-colonscopes - -examine the colon
-gastroscopes - -examine the small intestine,stomach and esophagus
-control body - -contains hand controls,: angulation control knobs, elevator/lifter,
air/water, suction control valves, remote video switches, biopsy port and focus mechanism.
-bending section - -articulates to aid insertion into curved areas.
-deflection - -ability of the tip of a flexible endoscope to bend using control knobs to
increase the area that can be accessed by a physician.
-microorganisms - -are organisms that can only be seen with the aid of a standard or
electron microscope.
-bacteria - -is a single celled microorganisms that multiply by splitting.
-symbiotic - -are good bacteria that help in some way.
-pathogens - -are capable of causing disease.
-fungi - -a diverse group of microorganisms and plants that include microscopic fungi and
yeasts. This can include mold, mushrooms, mildews and smuts.
-virulence - -the ability of a microorganism to overcome a persons immune defenses and
cause disease.
-gram stain - -uses the bacterium's outer surfaces to determine which color the bacteria
will stain.
-endospore stain - -Endospores look like bubbles when gram stained. Because of their
tough protein coats made of keratin, spores are highly resistant to normal staining
procedures.
, -capsule stain - -Some bacteria have slimy capsules that give bacteria added protection
from a defensive attack of immune cells.
-endospore - -are tough dormant structure that some bacteria are able to form when cells
find themselves in extreme peril conditions and are dying.
-anaerobes - -Bacteria that do not need oxygen
-germinate - -refers to the spore process moving from the dormant, highly-protected
spore state to an active bacteria in a favorable environment. It is also referred as moving
from the spore form back to a vegetative (non-spore) form as we
-capsules - -are associated with bacterial virulence (the ability for a microorganism to
overcome a person's immune system and cause disease).
-diploid - -bacteria that are cocci shaped appearing in pairs.
-tetrad - -bacteria that are cocci appearing in groups of four.
-cocci - -spiral or ball-shaped bacteria
-bacilli - -rod shaped bacteria
-DNA - -carries genetic information of the organism.
-capsid - -is the protective protein structure housing the DNA and RNA.
-Enveloped virus - -are a delicate membrane around the capsid that is studded with
proteins.
-Non-enveloped virus - -are viruses without an envelope around the cuspid referred to as
naked viruses.
-decontamination room parameters - -temp: 60°F- 65°F, humidity: 20-60%, air exchanges:
10, air pressure: Negative
-safety data sheet - -for the chemical steriliant or high-level disinfectant should be
consulted for safety requirements.
-eye wash stations - -should be located within a 10 second walk of the work area to enable
workers to reach them quickly in an event of a chemical splash.
-sterile storage room parameters - -temp: 60°F-75°F, humidity: Above 20%, air exchanges:
4, air pressure: Positive
