Which gestational week of embryonic development does the lymphatic system
begin? - ANSWERS-End of the fifth
Which layer of the three primary germ cells does the lymphatic vessels, spleen,
and nodes arise from (mesoderm, endoderm, or ectoderm)? - ANSWERS-
Mesoderm
What other structures arise from the same germ level as the lymphatic system -
ANSWERS-Connective tissue, muscle,bone, urogenital and circulatory system
True or false: the lymphatic system is an offshoot of the venous system -
ANSWERS-True: via lymph sacs that connect to embryonic veins. Lymph vessels
are lined by endothelial cells
At which stage in embryonic development is the primitive lymphatic system
developed - ANSWERS-2 months
How do the deep and superficial lymphatic systems connect - ANSWERS-
Perforating vessles
What does the superficial system drain - ANSWERS-Skin and supra facial layers
, What does the deep system drain - ANSWERS-Muscle, tendons, nervous tissue,
the periosteum, and joint structures
Where are the transport vessles of the superficial system located - ANSWERS-In
the fatty tissue
What plays a vital role in colloid osmotic balance - ANSWERS-Proteins
How long does it take for half the proteins circulating in the blood to leave the
capillaries and travel to the interstitial spaces - ANSWERS-24 hours
How many liters of water return to the veins via the venous Angles? - ANSWERS-
2-3 liters
Safety factor - ANSWERS-The lymphatic system reacts to an increase in water or
protein load with an increase in lymph time volume
What is lymphangiopathy - ANSWERS-When the normal lymphatic safety factor is
not activated
Pt with arterial wound and peripheral artery disease with an ankle brachial index
of 0.4. Is it okay to apply compression - ANSWERS-No. Normal values .95-1.3.
Looking for at least 0.7-0.8 to compress ( mild to moderate PAD 0.5-0.8)
