Q

What is the name of the POPV and SSV confluence?

A

Saphenopopliteal junction

18
Q

If the SSV does not empty into the POPV, and continues up the thigh, it is called the ________________.

A

Vein of Giacomini

19
Q

What percent of the population has a duplicated FV?

20
Q

What percent of the population has a duplicated POPV?

21
Q

What percent of the population has a duplicated POPV and FV?

22
Q

What percent of the population has no duplication?

23
Q

When Doppler is sampled inside the vein, you should hear what?

A

Spontaneous Flow

24
Q

Venous Doppler signal should vary with what?

25
Venous Doppler waveforms should have 5 characteristics, what are they?
- Spontaneous - Phasic - Augmentable - Competent - Non-pulsatile
26
What does the term "spontaneous" mean when referring to Venous Doppler?
Constant Signal, hear without assistance
27
What does the term "phasic" mean when referring to Venous Doppler?
Signal should vary with respiration
28
Should no signal be hear during inspiration or expiration?
Inspiration
29
What does the term "Augmentable" mean when referring to Venous Doppler?
The flow should increase with distal compression (leg squeeze)
30
Describe the Valsalva maneuver
A deep inspiration followed by a bearing down to creat abrupt flow cessation
31
What does the term "competent" mean when referring to Venous Doppler?
Competency describes the functionality of valves Competent = Valves work properly Incompetent = valves do not close
32
If Venous Valves do not close, which way will blood flow?
Caudad
33
What does the term "Non-pulsatile" mean when referring to Venous Doppler?
Venous flow should NOT be pulsatile
34
What are two conditions that could create pulsatile Veins?
- Venous HTN | - CHF
35
When are venous valves closed?
Upon inspiration
36
Describe a valve cusp
A dilated area of a vein located at a valve
37
Which veins have the most valves?
ATV and PTV
38
Why are Thrombi rare in the ATVs?
They do not communicate with the clonal sinus veins
39
Why is imaging in the pelvic region difficult?
- depth of the vessels - bowel gas - compression of vessels is not likely to be accomplished
40
How should compression of the FV along the adductor canal be accomplished?
By pressing the free hand against the posterior aspect of the thigh
41
Do you know the Week 2 Diagram of the calf?
Well....you better....just saying
