1. What does the deep plantar artery unite with? - ANSWER ✔ the
lateral plantar artery to complete the plantar arch
2. What does the tibial/peroneal trunk consist of? - ANSWER ✔ The
PTA and Peroneal artery
3. What are the terminal branches of the PTA? - ANSWER ✔ lateral and
medial plantar arteries
4. The right side of the brain controls what side of the body? -
ANSWER ✔ The left side
5. Left side symptoms in the body will be associated with what sided
ICA? - ANSWER ✔ Right
,6. Visual symptoms from ICA obstruction occur on what side of the
body? - ANSWER ✔ The same side
7. A patient that has hypertension must take their medication before a
renal exam or else what? - ANSWER ✔ Overestimation of renal
artery stenosis
8. uniliterally damped ICA and ECA wave forms indicates what? -
ANSWER ✔ a proximal obstruction
9. Bilaterally reduced resistance and velocity in the ICA/ECA is
associated with what? - ANSWER ✔ Congestive Heart Failure (CHF)
10. What is a bruit? - ANSWER ✔ A bruit is a vascular sound that
reflects partial arterial occlusion and you can hear turbulent flow
11. What is turbulent flow? - ANSWER ✔ Fluid movement that is
disorganized (think: white water rapids)
12. When would we conduct an ABI exam? - ANSWER ✔ patients
that have femoral bruits or diminished pulses, patients over the age of
50 with diabetes or smoking history and all patients over 70
,13. How do you calculate the positive predictive value? - ANSWER ✔
correct positive diagnosis divided by the total number of positive
diagnosis
14. Abdominal Doppler exams are performed with a frequency of? -
ANSWER ✔ 2-4 Mhz
15. Lower extremity arterial duplex exams are performed with what
frequency? - ANSWER ✔ 5-7 Mhz
16. Renal artery stenosis is greater than 60% when the PSV is greater
than? - ANSWER ✔ 1.8 m/s
17. Amount of blood flow depends on what? - ANSWER ✔ Energy
difference and resistance
18. cardiac output depends on what? - ANSWER ✔ venous return
19. Blood leaves the heart at what mean of pressure? - ANSWER ✔
85-95mmHg
, 20. Small arteries and arterioles are considered what? and what is their
means of pressure? - ANSWER ✔ resistance vessels and 25-30
mmHg
21. Blood moves from high pressure to where? - ANSWER ✔ low
pressure
22. What is phasic defined as? - ANSWER ✔ variation in velocity in
the venous circulation due to respiration
23. What is pulsatile flow? - ANSWER ✔ variable velocity due to
cardiac contractions
24. The total energy contained in moving fluid is the sum of? -
ANSWER ✔ Pressure, motion and gravitational energy (Hydrostatic
pressure)
25. When a patient is laying supine, the arteries and veins have the
same pressure as the heart. When the patient stands, about how much
HP (hydrostatic pressure) is added to the ankles? - ANSWER ✔ 100
mm/Hg
