ulceration, edema, pain, and fatigue. - ANS-The primary objective of varicose vein
surgery, for the patient with secondary disease, is to prevent:
Femoral arteriotomy - ANS-During an open femoropopliteal bypass with graft, an
incision is made into the femoral artery with a #11 knife blade and extended with a
Potts angulated scissors. What is the proper name of this surgical approach?
Arteriosclerosis is a natural part of the aging process. - ANS-What statement
regarding risk factors for developing vascular disease is true?
-Thrombo-resistant, biocompatible, and easy to handle
-Sterilizable, nonantigenic, and last a lifetime
-Reasonably priced, permit blood passage without clotting, and hypoallergenic -
ANS-When selecting a vascular graft for a vascular bypass or replacement
procedure, what are the desirable characteristics that influence the surgeon's
choice of graft? Select all that apply from the listed options.
Both are explained by the Doppler effect. - ANS-Why is the change in sound made
by a passing train's whistle similar to the reason the pitch rises quickly in systole
and drops quickly in early diastole when measuring arterial sounds?
contract, relax - ANS-The elastic nature of the arteries allows them to _____
during systole and _____ during diastole to maintain vascular pressure.
Y shaped - ANS-A bifurcated graft is ________.
