MULTIPLE CHOICE v




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


who works for a company that sells chemistry laboratory supplies. When the laboratory
v v v v v v v v v v v v v


manager requests a list of needed supplies, cost of supplies, and vendors, this individual
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v


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


a. accounting issue. v


b. possible conflict of interest. v v v


c. maintenance of confidentiality issue. v v v


d. problem with resource allocation. v v v




ANS: B v


Concern has been raised over the interrelationships between practitioners in the medical
v v v v v v v v v v v


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


Similarly, relationships have been scrutinized between clinical laboratorians and
v v v v v v v v v


manufacturers and providers of diagnostic equipment and supplies. These concerns led the
v v v v v v v v v v v v


National Institutes of Health (NIH) in 1995 to require official institutional review of financial
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v


disclosure by researchers and management of situations in which disclosure indicates
v v v v v v v v v v v


potentialconflicts of interest.

2. A patient visits her physician stating that her prescribed painkiller is not working to
v v v v v v v v v v v v v


reduce the pain following her recent surgery. A friend of the patient claims that the same
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v


painkiller“worked wonders” to reduce her pain after the same surgery. The physician
v v v v v v v v v v v v


states that the difference in the effect of the drug might be caused by , which is studied
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v


in pharmacogenetics.
v v


a. epidemiology
b. an inherited disease v v


c. a conflict of interest
v v v


d. a genetic variation in drug-metabolizing enzymes

3. John works in a molecular diagnostics laboratory and receives a
v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v v


vblood sample that has the name of a close friend printed on the
v v v v v v v v v v v v


v bar-coded label. The genetic test that is ordered on the friend’s sample
v v v v v v v v v v v


v would provide diagnostic information about a disorder that has a poor
v v v v v v v v v v


v prognosis, and the v v


test is usually performed by John. He asks a fellow employee to
v v v v v v v v v v v


analyze the sample for him and not divulge the results. This ethical
v v v v v v v v v v v v


issue concerns:
v v


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


b. a conflict of interest.
v v v v


c. resource allocation. v


d. diagnostic accuracy. v
