A. OBGYN, OR, NICU 

B. ICU, PEDS, PACU 

C. Occupational Therapy, CCU, Behavioral Health 

D. Physical Therapy, ENT, Dermatology 

Answer:

Explanation: Physical Therapy, ENT and Dermatology are outpatient services. Physical therapy involves therapy after injury or illness to regain the use of muscles and nerves that may have been damaged. ENT is an acronym for "ear nose and throat" or an otolargynogolgy department that deals with illness of the ears, nose, throat and upper respiratory issues. Dermatology deals with diseases of the skin, from acne to cancers. Even if they are called into an inpatient setting, these services are considered outpatient services and would likely have outpatient offices or clinics outside of the central hospital where inpatient services are centered, and might use different billing and coding practices. Answer: A is incorrect. OBGYN is an acronym for obstetrics and gynecology, which is women's health during pregnancy and the specialty of the health of female sexual organs. There are often both outpatient and inpatient departments or units for OBGYN within the hospital. The OR is the operating room, and is clearly an inpatient service as a standard OR requires intensive services and a hospital stay. Minor surgeries are often done in the ambulatory surgery on an outpatient basis, not an OR, which is for more serious surgery cases. NICU is an acronym for Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, and it is a department that specializes in the care of premature or seriously ill infants. This is an inpatient, intensive services department, not an outpatient department. Answer: B is incorrect. The ICU is the intensive care unit, also called the Critical Care Unit (CCU) or Intensive Therapy Unit (ITU) is a specialized department for inpatient services in a hospital that provides intensive-care medicine for critically ill patients, some who may need mechanically assisted ventilation or other round-the-clock care. PEDS is short for pediatric care, which is a department that may have both inpatient and outpatient services at a facility, which may or may not be located in the same place. PACU is the post-anesthesia recovery unit, and is part of an OR or ambulatory surgery department and may occur as an inpatient or outpatient service. They provide care for patients recovering from anesthesia. Answer: C is incorrect. It's true that Occupational Therapy is an outpatient service, and occupational therapists help patients with physical, mental or developmental difficulties learn or relearn the skills of daily living. However, the CCU or coronary care unit, is an inpatient department which specializes in the treatment of heart-related critical conditions, like heart attacks, unstable angina and other heart conditions that require constant monitoring. Behavioral Health is an inpatient department for treatment of mental health conditions that cannot be managed in an outpatient setting. http://physicaltherapy.about.com/od/typesofphysicaltherapy/a/whatistherapy.htm 


Q180. Which of the following terms is described in the statement below? "It is a way of grouping Web servers to handle heavy traffic." 

A. Clustering 

B. Network Load Balancing 

C. Bottleneck 

D. Failover 

Answer:

Explanation: Clustering is a way of grouping multiple Web servers to handle heavy traffic. A cluster is a group of two or more servers working together as a single system. All the computers in a cluster are grouped under a common name i.e., a virtual server name, which is used to access and manage the cluster. Each member server of the cluster is called a node. A cluster provides redundant operations in the event of hardware or application failure. Answer: D is incorrect. Failover is a term associated with cluster services. It refers to the ability of a server to immediately start servicing the requests if a primary server fails. If the application services in a cluster-node fail, the Cluster Service generally tries to restart them on the same node. If the services do not start, then it moves the services to another node in the cluster and restarts them on that node. Answer: B is incorrect. Network Load Balancing is a Windows Server 2003 clustering technology. It runs as a driver in Microsoft Windows and distributes incoming requests across each node included in the cluster. Its primary purpose is to load-balance by distributing TCP/IP traffic among the server nodes in a cluster. For load balancing-aware applications, such as Exchange Server 2003, when one of the nodes fails or becomes offline, the load is automatically distributed to other nodes in the cluster. A cluster using Network Load Balancing can have 2 to 32 nodes. Administrators can configure it through the Network Load Balancing Manager, which is located in the Administrative Tools program menu. Answer: C is incorrect. Bottleneck is a situation caused by excessive demand on scarce system resources. Bottlenecks occur because of the following reasons: Insufficient resources Incorrect distribution of workload amongst the resources Incorrectly configured resources Malfunctioning of resources
