to id the potential for DVT
,which conditions are associated with venous statsis part of
virchow's triad
which are not
pregnancy, immobility, obesity
not - anxiety
how to confirm proper scd fit
you can fit two fingers between the client's leg and the device
what is the chain of infections
1- an infectious agent or pathogen - bacteria, virus, fungi,
protozoa
2- a reservoir or source for pathogen growth (humans, animals,
food, water, insects, inanimate objects)
3- a portal of exit from the reservoir (skin and mucous
membranes, resp. tract, urinary tract, gi tract, reproductive tract
and blood)
4- mode of transportation (hands, equipment, droplet)
5- a portal of entry to host ( skin and mucous membranes, resp.
tract, urinary tract, gi tract, reproductive tract and blood)
6- a susceptible host

,absence of pathogenic microorganisms
medical vs surgical
