Question:
Hypercoagulable conditions
Answer:
Polycythemia
Dehydration
Platelet aggregation
,Question:
Aggregated platelets, clotting factors and fibrin that adhere to vessel walls
Answer:
Thrombus
Question:
Intermittent claudication, limbs may be cool to touch and cyanotic
Answer:
arterial thrombus
Question:
Swelling in affected limb, increased skin temperature, pain in the calf with
dorsiflexion
Answer:
venous thrombus
,Question:
How edema forms due to venous insufficiency
Answer:
Pathologic conditions resulting in an increase in either the blood pressure
or the resistance to flow can alter this force, increasing it and propelling
more fluid into the interstitial space, resulting in the formation of edema.
Question:
A moving clot
A thromboemobolus or clot that dislodges from a vessel or valvular leaflet
in the heart
Answer:
Embolus
Question:
Most thromboemboli form in the deep veins of the pelvis and lower
extremities and return to the right side of the heart and lodge
Answer:
in the pulmonary vasculature resulting in pulmonary embolism
, Question:
May be exposure to environmental factors such as cold temperature or
emotional stress, hormonal changes or sensitivities to food additives
Constriction of arterial smooth muscle that results in obstruction of flow
Smoking:
Can cause coronary arterial vasospasm which leads to decreased
myocardial oxygen supply
Answer:
Vasospams
raynauds
Question:
Cerebral vasospasm
Answer:
Head ache or hypoxia
