Q

Why Raise Right Common Carotid Artery Considerations/Advantages?
Insures direct distribution to the face.
Close to the center of venous drainage and better blood removal of the face is assured.
Close to the center of circulation.
Has no branches except terminal branches.
Face may be embalmed with milder solution than remainder of the body with restricted cervical injection.

A

Why Raise Right Common Carotid Artery Precautions/Disadvantages?
Incision may be visible after dressing.
Tubes may leave marks on the face.
The face may be over injected.

Q

(Center of embalming)
2nd division and arches behind heart.
Has 3 branches:
1st branch brachocephalic 2nd branch Left Common Carotid 3rd branch Left Subclavian
Terminates at level of the second level costal cartilage

A

Arch of the aorta

Arch of the aorta continues as Descending Aorta
Arch of the aorta is a continuation of/arises from Ascending Aorta

19
Q

Begins at the level of the second level costal cartilage
1st vessel/initial point of injection used in non-autopsy infant cases.
Point of injection when heart was removed in open heart surgery and person died.
Comprised of the Thoracic Aorta and Abdominal Aorta

A

Descending Aorta

20
Q

Only part of largest artery routinely used by embalmers as initial point of injection of non-autopsy bodies.
Located directly on top of spine.

A

Abdominal Aorta

21
Q

Accompanying vein of descending aorta and initial point of drainage used in non-autopsy infant cases.
Lies laterally to the right of Descending Abdomen Aorta, largest vain in the human body.

A

IVC (Inferior Vena Cava)

22
Q

Under the clavicle/collar bone

Typically only used in autopsy case

A

Subclavian

Anatomical guide

23
Q

Begins at the right sternoclavicular articulation
Terminates to the lateral border of the first right rib.
Separately inject to ensure preservation of right upper extremities in autopsy case

A

Right Subclavian

Anatomical limits:

24
Q

Begins level of the second level costal cartilage
Terminates to the lateral border of the first left rib.
Separately inject to ensure preservation of left upper extremities in autopsy case
Last branch of arch of aorta

A

Left subclavian:

Anatomical limits:

25
Q

Subclavian Place of incision:

A

Along the upper margin of the clavicle about one-third (1/3) of the distance from the shoulder and root of the neck.
Supraclavicular
Along the superior border of the clavicle. Used in emaciated case or young female with low neck line

26
Q

Through the center of the base of the auxiliary space and parallel to the long axis of the upper extremity when abducted.

A

Auxiliary (arm pit)

Linear guide:

27
Q

Posterior to the medial border of the coracobrachialis muscle.

A

Auxiliary

Anatomical guide:

28
Q

Begins at the lateral border of the first rib

Terminate to the inferior border of the tendon of the teres major muscle.

A

Auxiliary Anatomical limits:

29
Q

Auxiliary Place of incision:

A

Along the anterior margin of the hairline of the axillia.

30
Q

Auxiliary Place of incision Considerations:
Close to the face.
Close to the center of circulation (arch of aorta).
Close to the center of venous drainage (right atrium).
Vessels are relatively superficial.

A

Auxiliary Place of incision Precautions:
Danger of over-injecting the face
Anomalies of both artery and vein are common
If arms are not treated properly, it does not appear natural when the body is placed in the casket.
Numerous branches the embalm arm in position when/after injection

31
Q

Auxiliary’s accompanying vein
(1st single/unpaired vein in upper extremities amongst brachoplexus)
Located medial and superficial to auxiliary artery; used also as initial location of drainage in Ireland

A

Auxiliary vein

32
Q

From the center of the base of the auxiliary space to the center of the forearm just inferior/below the bend of the elbow.

A 
Brachial Artery (arm region between shoulder and elbow)
Linear Guide:
33
Q

lies posterior to the medial border of the belly of the biceps brachii muscle

A

Brachial Artery

Anatomical Guide:

34
Q

Begins at the inferior border of the tendon teres major muscle and
Terminates to a point inferior to the antecubital fossa.
