17
Q

venous ulcer pain

A

mild

18
Q

arterial ulcer pain

A

severe

19
Q

venous ulcers and bleeding

A

venous ooze

20
Q

arterial ulcers and bleeding

A

little

21
Q

pitting edema

A

fluid in subcutaneous tissue

depression of skin surface with manual pressure

22
Q

pitting edema causes

A

fluid retention
CHF
elevated venous pressure

23
Q

lymphadema

A

fluid accumulations when lymph nodes and vessels are removed of damaged
seen after cancer surgery
non pitting edema

24
Q

virchows triad

A

trauma to vessel/endothelial vessel
venous stasis
hypercoadulability

25
Q

paget schroetter syndrome (trauma to vessel)

A

stress/effort thrombosis
axillary or subclavian vein
venous component of TOS

26
Q

venous stasis

A
immobility
obesity
pregnancy
previous dvt
extrinsic compression
27
Q

superior vena cava syndrome

A

obstruction (neoplasm, lines)
edema and engorgement of vessels evident
pt may cough/ SOB
flow in UE remains the same during inspiration (continuous flow)

28
Q

hypercoagulability

A
protein deficiencies
pregnancy
cancer
hormones
estrogen intake
29
Q

intraluminal thrombi frequently begin at

A

valve cusps

soleal sinus

30
Q

chronic venous insufficiency

A

stretching of walls due to DVT results in damage to valves

increased venous pressure causes flow changes

31
Q

Post-phlebitis syndrome

A

chronic flow changes result in persistent edema, stasis, pain
may lead to ulceration

32
Q

valvular incompetence

A

valves no longer maintain unidirectional flow

calf muscle pump no longer forces blood towards heart or from superficial system to deep

33
Q

results of valvular incompetence

A

increase pressure/venous hypertension
varicosities
fluid may leak into surrounding fluid causing brawny appearance
ulceration

34
Q

ambulatory venous hypertension is

A

increasing pressure when patient stands or walks

35
Q

primary varicose veins

A

dilated secondary to valvular incompetence of superficial system
deep system intact

36
Q

secondary varicose veins

A

dilated veins caused by incompetence of superficial system
results from deep venous obstruction
deep system not intact

37
Q

portal hypertension is

A

elevated venous pressure from obstruction of blood flow

38
Q

portal hypertension may result in

A

reverse flow in portal vein and increased portal venous pressure that impedes blood flow into liver

39
Q

klippel-trenaunay

A

multiple varicosities of superifical system

hypoplastic or absent deep veins

40
Q

renal cell carcinoma

A

MC renal mass in adults

most common cause of IVC tumor
