Question | Answer |
---|---|
erythemia, pain, and palpable subcutaneous cord are symptoms of DVT or thrombophlebitis | thrombophlebitis |
T/F Flow in the calf is Not spontaneous | True |
noncompressible FV at the adductor canal may be due to | depth of vessel and adjacent femur |
which veins should you scan if a cont nonphasic waveform was detected in the CFV | Iliac Veins |
shallow breathers, lying supine, arms raised, spinal cord injury, proximal dvt can all affect the waveform in the legs | yes- may not give a resp phascicty waveform |
all upper ext veins demonstrate | pulsatility with resp phasicity |
Retrograde flow in the IJV/ EJV suggests obstruction where | innominate vein |
When evaluating the PICC lines orient the transducer__ to the cath | perpendicular |
what vessels makes up the Mickey Mouse sign | GSV, CFV, SFA |
T/F Color Doppler in the leg is best for the proximal veins | False- CD is best for distal Fv, pop vn, and calf vns. Spectra doppler is best for prox vns |
What is "effort thrombosis" | Paget- Schroetter Syndrome |
T/F When scanning the lower ext, place the patient in a supine postion. | False- supine for upper ext, semi fowlers or reverse trendelenburg for lower ext |
Reverberation Artifact is often seen in the | IJV |
T/F Augmentation is NOT useful for the detection of DVT | True- useful for calf flow evaluation and for reflux assessment (vn insufficiency) |
differential diagnose for calf pain include | popliteal cyst, intramuscular hematoma, lymphedema, cellulitis, abscess |
augmentation of the calf determins.. | competency of the valves |
What are the abnormal reflux times in location to the deep, superficial, & perforators? | deep veins> 1sec, GSV/SSV> 0.5sec, perforating vns> 0.35sec |
what position should the patient be in when scanning the preforators? | sitting w legs dependent off the bed |
