An important risk reduction strategy for any minimally invasive procedure would be - consider and plan for the possibility of conversion to open thyroidectomy A needletype frequently used in microsurgery is - cutting taper A percutaneous method of instituting femoral vein-femoral artery cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) can be used for minimally invasive (or conventional open) procedures and in emergency situations where the environment is not conducive to traditional CPB methods. Select the areas where percutaneous CPB would be indicated - Cardiac catheterization unit and intensive care unit a physical barrier used in the prevention of adhesions that can take up to 2 weeks to absorb - Interseed a possible benefit to the paramedian incision - decreased risk for hernia A vena cava filter (Greenfield filter) maintains a patent vena cava but prevents pulmonary emboli (PE) by trapping the emboli at the apex of the device. This procedure may be performed in the OR, radiology suite, or ICU for critical patients - Right jugular and right femoral Access to the substernal compartment is typically facilitated by: - using long instruments through a regular thyroid incision. An example of an indication for liver transplantation would be - primary hepatic cancer An interventional radiology procedure used to open a blocked or narrowed blood vessel as a result of atherosclerosis - Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty Because herbal products are so readily available and have such widespread media attention, many people think that they can safely self-medicate. Why should the public be aware and educated about dietary supplements and potential harmful effects - Unknown substances may be present in these products. Definitive information about the extent and location of ischemic heart disease can be obtained from which of the following tests - Cardiac catherization Describe the internal inguinal ring - Structures that traverse the inguinal canal enter it from the abdomen by the internal ring, a natural opening in the transversalis fascia During ventriculoperitoneal shunt placement, - The unit is soaked in NS & antibiotic solution, never lubricated. he blood is oxygenated in the lungs and returns to the left atrium through the pulmonary veins. Where does the blood flow after leaving the left atrium - Through the mitral valve into the left ventricle he external ear, which includes the auricle (or pinna) and external auditory canal, is composed of cartilage covered with skin. The primary function of the auricle is to - concentrate and conduct incoming sound waves into the external auditory canal. he largest part of the mammary gland rests on the - Pectoralis major muscle and serratus anterior Identify the class of medications that can increase the risk or severity of a reaction to contrast media - Beta Blockers Latex allergy reaction is best prevented by - limiting exposure to latex Miotics and mydriatics produce opposite effects on the pupil of the eye. Select the most appropriate statement about miotic and mydriatic drugs - Mydriatic drugs, such as phenylephrine, dilate the pupil. Morbidity and mortality may be greater with penetrating trauma because identification of injuries may be more difficult when injuries are less obvious. In the case of an adult victim with a low-velocity, low-caliber gunshot wound, at far range, of the anterior left quadrant of the lower abdomen, what is the MOI and description of the possible injuries - enetrating; small entrance wound, puncture of the anterior wall of the sigmoid colon, no disruption of vessels, and bullet not found in pelvis New synthetic polymers such as PDS provide wound support up to _____ months - 3 Oculocardiac reflex (OCR) is an intraoperative emergency that can occur during eye surgery. Select the definition of the response and contributing factor(s) - Trigeminal-vagal response caused by pressure on the globe or retrobulbar block On extubation, Daniel presented with coughing, wheezing, dyspnea, use of accessory muscles, and tachypnea. Daniel is presenting with _______ probably caused by _______. - bronchospasm; aspiration On postoperative day 2, a patient developed edema, redness, and purulent exudate that appeared to be isolated to the subcutaneous plane above the sternum. What important criteria must be met to conclusively define this as surgical site infection (SSI)? - Positive diagnosis of the SSI by the surgeon or attending physician Patients with chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) are not typically treated surgically as often as patients with arterial disease because: - CVI is not life-threatening or limb-threatening Pericardial tamponade includes which of the following signs or symptoms - Narrow pulse pressure Precautions apply to blood, all body fluids, secretions, and excretions (except sweat), regardless of whether they contain visible blood, mucous membranes, and nonintact skin. - Standard Pressure against the skin above ____mm hg interferes with tissue perfusion - 32 Primary divisions of a nerve are known as - Rami Proper care and handling of surgical specimens is imperative for correct diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis planning of the patient. Select the response that best reflects correct specimen care and handling - Avoid placing specimens for frozen section in formalin. Pt with hepatobiliary disease, The periop
