ACTUAL EXAM QUESTIONS AND
CORRECT ANSWERS
c ABI - Correct answer.assess for peripheral artery disease'
.5-.8 reduced compression
below .5 no compression
1.0-1.2-normal range
above 1.2 abnormal vessel hardening from PVD can still use full compression but refer out
Accessory drains - Correct answer.Supraclavicular
recieves lymph from occipital and internal jugular
active hyperemia - Correct answer.Anything that causes vasodilation
Sphincter dilates to increase blood flow
Increased volume=increased BCP=increased filtration=increased LL of H20
Healthy LS can compensate
Activates safety factor
I,e. massage, inflammation from infection, temp, sunbathing, exercise
,Aplasia - Correct answer.absence of vessels or nodes
Arterial wounds - Correct answer.toes, dorsum of foot, lateral malleolus, often full thickness.
"punched out", pale, no granulation.
decreased pulse, painful
Dry/necrotic
ABI test before compression
Usually Small
Deep with Cliff edge
Axillary drains - Correct answer.Subclavian trunk
UE/mammary gland 75%/upper quadrants
Bioimpedance - Correct answer.electrical current
must rely on population data
Candida Albicans - Correct answer.Oral Thrush
Candida Vulvovaginitis - Correct answer.vaginal inflammation, itchiness, and thick/white discharge.
, Cellulitis - Correct answer.an acute streptococcal infection of the skin and the subcutaneous fatty tissues
heat, discoloration, pain, edema, and fever/malaise/chills/HAs
COLLECTORS - Correct answer.Bring lymph to Lnn and trunks
HAVE DEVELOPED VALVES
Run parallel and bring lymph fluid distal to proximal
Deep collectors draining the deeper tissues & organs
Superficial collectors drain the skin or superficial tissue
3 LAYERS
Intima- endothelial cells and a basal membrane.
Media- Smooth muscle cells and elastic fibers.
Adventia- Collagen fibers and other cells (macrophages, neurons, and dendritic cells)
Have open junctions in wall of the collectors allowing for a minimal amount of solutes to escape,
like proteins.
Columnar pants - Correct answer.column like swelling with lipedema
combined insufficiency - Correct answer.Increased lymphatic load - on a damaged lymphatic system
Components of Lymphatic load - Correct answer.Water, proteins, cells, long chain fatty acids
Compression Level 1 - Correct answer.20-30mmhg
