Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Variable inductance and strain gauge pressure transducers are commonly used for measuring res-piratory and cardiovascular pressures because they respond quickly to pressure changes.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
Stand-alone devices for the measurement of bedside respiratory mechanics include the BICORE CP-100 and the VenTrak system.

There are major differences in the metabolism of morphine and the illegal drug heroin. Morphine mostly produces its CNS effects through m-receptors, and at k- and d-receptors. Heroin has a slight affinity for opiate receptors. Most of its actions are due to metabolism to active metabolites (6-acetylmorphine, morphine, and morphine-6-glucuronide).
