MULTIPLE CHOICE n




1. An individual working in a clinical chemistry laboratory is married to a sales representative who
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n




works for a company that sells chemistry laboratory supplies. When the laboratory manager
n n n n n n n n n n n n n




requests a list of needed supplies, cost of supplies, and vendors, this individual onlyrecommends
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n




the spouse’s company as the vendor. This is considered to be a(n):
n n n n n n n n n n n n




a. accounting issue. n




b. possible conflict of interest. n n n




c. maintenance of confidentiality issue. n n n




d. problem with resource allocation. n n n




ANS: B n




Concern has been raised over the interrelationships between practitioners in the medical fieldand
n n n n n n n n n n n n n




commercial suppliers of drugs, devices, equipment, etc., to the medical profession.
n n n n n n n n n n n




Similarly, relationships have been scrutinized between clinical laboratorians and manufacturers
n n n n n n n n n




and providers of diagnostic equipment and supplies. These concerns led the National Institutes of
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n




Health (NIH) in 1995 to require official institutional review of financial disclosure by researchers
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n




and management of situations in which disclosure indicates potentialconflicts of interest.

2. A patient visits her physician stating that her prescribed painkiller is not working to reduce the
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n




pain following her recent surgery. A friend of the patient claims that the same painkiller
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n




“worked wonders” to reduce her pain after the same surgery. The physician states that the
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n




difference in the effect of the drug might be caused by
n , which is studied in
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n




pharmacogenetics.

a. epidemiology

Pharmacogenetics is the study of the genetic variation of drug metabolism between n n n n n n n n n n n

3. John works in a molecular diagnostics laboratory and receives a blood sample that has the name
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n




of a close friend printed on the bar-coded label. The genetic test that is ordered on thefriend’s
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n




sample would provide diagnostic information about a disorder that has a poor prognosis, and
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n




the test is usually performed by John. He asks a fellow employee to analyzethe sample for him
n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n n




and not divulge the results. This ethical issue concerns:
n n n n n n n n n




a. confidentiality of patient genetic and medical information. n n n n n n




b. a conflict of interest. n n n




c. resource allocation. n




d. diagnostic accuracy. n
