OET READING DAILY
Text:
Syringe pumps, crucial in controlled drug delivery, enable precise administration of fluids over extended durations. Unlike traditional infusion pumps, they utilize a plunger mechanism, pushing medication at a programmable rate, ideal for small-volume infusions. Often used in intensive care settings, they manage potent drugs where minute deviations could have adverse effects. Advanced models incorporate pressure sensors and fail-safes to prevent occlusion, ensuring consistent flow. However, calibration errors or malfunctioning software can compromise efficacy, necessitating vigilant monitoring. Their utility is irreplaceable in scenarios requiring accuracy, especially in neonatology and anesthesiology, where patient sensitivity is paramount.
Question: What underlying concern about syringe pumps is subtly emphasized in the passage?
A) Their irreplaceable sensors may fail
B) The risks associated with malfunctioning systems
C) The advanced technology in modern syringe pumps
D) The reliance on health professionals’ monitoring

TASK
Advise patient to speak to his/her GP about medication if concerned. Explore any other treatment options tried (relaxation techniques, counseling, etc.).
ANSWERS
LISTENING
Answer: C) The patient’s specific needs and abilities.
Rationale: The therapist emphasizes the importance of considering factors like height, weight, mobility needs, strength, balance, and gait when choosing a walking aid. This indicates that the decision is based on individual assessment rather than a one-size-fits-all approach.
READING
Answer: B) The risks associated with malfunctioning systems
Rationale: The passage briefly discusses calibration errors and malfunctioning software as potential risks, emphasizing the importance of vigilant monitoring to prevent compromised efficacy. This implies that while syringe pumps are crucial for accuracy, there is an inherent risk of failure if the systems are not properly maintained or monitored. Other options mention important aspects, but the concern of malfunction stands out as a subtle but key focus.
WRITING
