MULTIPLE CHOICE ss




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


representative who works for a company that sells chemistry laboratory supplies. When
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss


the laboratory manager requests a list of needed supplies, cost of supplies, and vendors,
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss


this individual onlyrecommends the spouse’s company as the vendor. This is considered
ss ss ss s ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss


to be a(n):
ss ss ss


a. accounting issue. ss


b. possible conflict of interest. ss ss ss


c. maintenance of confidentiality issue. ss ss ss


d. problem with resource allocation. ss ss ss




ANS: B ss


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


fieldand commercial suppliers of drugs, devices, equipment, etc., to the medical
ss s ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss


profession.
ss


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


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


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


financial disclosure by researchers and management of situations in which disclosure
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss


indicates potentialconflicts of interest.

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

same painkiller―worked wonders‖ to reduce her pain after the same surgery. The
ss ss s ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss


physician states that the difference in the effect of the drug might be caused by

which is studied in pharmacogenetics.

3. John works in a molecular diagnostics laboratory and receives a blood sample that has
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss


the name of a close friend printed on the bar-coded label. The genetic test that is
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss


ordered on thefriend’s sample would provide diagnostic information about a disorder
ss ss ss s ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss


that has a poor prognosis, and the test is usually performed by John. He asks a fellow
ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss


employee to analyzethe sample for him and not divulge the results. This ethical issue
ss ss ss s ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss ss


concerns:

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


b. a conflict of interest.
