Resource summary

Question 1

Question
The term WAG refers to:
Answer
  • waste anesthetic gas.
  • waste agents and gas.
  • waste analgesic gas.
  • waste analgesics and gas.

Question 2

Question
Which of the following general anesthetics are liquids at room temperature?
Answer
  • Nitrous oxide and isoflurane
  • Isoflurane and sevoflurane
  • Sevoflurane and nitrous oxide
  • Nitrous oxide and desflurane

Question 3

Question
The term REL refers to:
Answer
  • reactive exposure limit.
  • relative exposure limit.
  • recommended exposure limit.
  • redistributed exposure limit.

Question 4

Question
In regard to the control of WAGs, a scavenging system:
Answer
  • reduces the escape of waste anesthetic gas by leak testing.
  • leads to less waste pollution by the control of flow rate carrier gas.
  • controls the waste gas concentration by anesthetic time.
  • captures waste anesthetic gases by attaching to a machine and discharging them outside the clinic.

Question 5

Question
Which of the following scenarios would lead to the highest level of waste gas contamination?
Answer
  • A bottle of isoflurane is dropped and broken while refilling the vaporizer.
  • A fractious cat is “boxed down” in an induction chamber.
  • A dog is sedated using an anesthesia mask and isoflurane.
  • A dog is intubated and the endotracheal tube is not inflated prior to the use of isoflurane.

Question 6

Question
Which of the following is believed to be the least toxic inhalation agent?
Answer
  • Sevoflurane
  • Isoflurane
  • Halothane
  • Methoxyflurane

Question 7

Question
Short-term problems related to the inhalation of WAGs include symptoms of fatigue, headache, and irritability, due to:
Answer
  • metabolism of the WAGs by the liver.
  • metabolism of the WAGs by the kidneys.
  • effect of anesthetic molecules on the brain neurons.
  • excretion of the WAGs by the kidneys.

Question 8

Question
The primary function of a scavenging system is to:
Answer
  • provide a professionally installed ASA regulatory system.
  • collect waste gas from the machine in order for exact analysis.
  • deliver halogenated anesthetic agents.
  • collect waste gas from the machine and conduct it to a disposal point outside the building.

Question 9

Question
The opening through which WAGs exit the pop-off valve on a rebreathing system is:
Answer
  • the waste gas port.
  • transfer tubing.
  • the interface.
  • the gas evacuation system.

Question 10

Question
The most appropriate type of anesthetic gas evacuation system for a surgical suite 80 feet away from an outside wall is a(n):
Answer
  • passive scavenging system.
  • active scavenging system.
  • high-pressure passive scavenging system.
  • low-pressure active scavenging system.

Question 11

Question
An activated charcoal canister is least effective at removing which of the following anesthetics?
Answer
  • Sevoflurane
  • Isoflurane
  • Nitrous oxide
  • Methoxyflurane

Question 12

Question
72 hr of use or weight gain of 100 g.In order to effectively absorb anesthetic vapors, activated charcoal cartridges should be replaced after:
Answer
  • 72 hr of use or weight gain of 100 g.
  • 48 hr of use or weight gain of 50 g.
  • 24 hr of use or weight gain of 100 g.
  • 12 hr of use or weight gain of 50 g.

Answer
  • high-pressure test
  • mid-pressure test
  • low-pressure test
  • negative-pressure test and high-pressure test

Question 15

Question

Answer
  • Low-pressure test
  • Low-pressure and high-pressure tests
  • Negative-pressure test
  • Negative-pressure and high-pressure tests

Question 16

Question
The risk of fire increases when which of the following is used in close proximity to oxygen sources?
Answer
