Q

What arteries produce a monophasic flow pulsed Doppler spectral waveform and why?

A
Arteries with low ressitance arterial flow will product monophase wave form.
The arteries are:
- Internal carotid
- Vertebral
- Renal
- Celiac
- Splenic
- Hepatic

Q

איך מחושב IR - Resistive Index?
למה הוא משמש?
מה טווח הערכים שלו?

A

(PSV-EDV)/PSV
משמש להערכת התנגדות פריפרית לא תקינה בכליות ובמוח.
ערכים נורמאלים הם מתחת ל-0.7.
ערכים גבוהים מ-0.85 קשורים בהתנגדות (Resistance) וסקולרית גבוהה וירידה בפרפוזיה הרקמתית של איבר המטרה.

Q

איך מחשבים PI - pulsatility index?
למה הוא משמש?
מה הערכים שלו?

A

מחלקים את מהירות ה-Peak-to-peak בעקומת הזרימה במהירות הממוצאת.
בעורקים תקינים הערך הוא מעל 4 (פמורלי מעל 6, פופליטאלי מעל 8).
ערל מתחת ל-4 משקף הצרות או חסימה פרוקסימלית.

Q

מה זה “dumping factor”?

A

חלוקת PI דיסטאלי ב-PI פרוקסימלי.

ערך מתחת ל-0.9 הוא אבחנתי למחלה חסימתית.

Q

מה זה גל tardus-parvus?

A

גל בעקומת דולפר עם זמן האצה סיסטולית של יותר מ-200ms (האצה איטית) ושיפוע מתעגל בקצהו. מרמז על PSV מאורך.

Q

מה משפיע יותר על הזרימה, אורך ההצרות או קוטר ההצרות?

A

בעוד היחס בין הזרימה לאורך הוא הפוך לינארי, היחס בין הקוטר לזרימה הפוך הוא בחזקת 4.

A

Filled with a gelatinous mucoid material.

Microscopic: simple cuboid cell lining in the adventitial layer, with absence of any atherosclerotic disease.

17
Q

What is the advantage of vein cuffs?

A

significantly improves patency for below the knee prostetic bypass.
2 years patency 52% with vs. 29% without vein cuff.
Also improves limb salvage (84% vs. 62%)
Still inferior to those of vein bypasses

18
Q

How is the renal resistive index measured?

A

(PSV-EDV) / PSV of interlobular vessels of kidney

19
Q

What is normal velocity in the intracranial vessels?

20
Q

What are low resistance circulations in the body that would have persistence of flow throughout diastole?

A

brain, kidneys, spleen, liver

21
Q

A

to and fro

22
Q

Absolute Indications for fasciotomy

A

Tense compartment+

  1. Pain with passive motion of muscles traversing the same compartment
  2. Paresis or paresthesias refer able to the same component
  3. Tense compartment in a patient who cannot be examined serially due to obtundation or need for other operations
  4. ICP minus mean blood pressure

25
What are the four diagnostic criteria for Marfan's syndrome?
Ectopia lentis, pectus excavatum, height, evidence of dissection
26
What is the mutation in Marfan syndrome?
Fibrillin 1

29
What is the maximum dose of lidocaine and lidocaine with epi?
5 mg/kg for lidocaine plain 7 mg/kg for lidocaine with epi So for a 70kg person, 35 ml plain or 49ml with epi
30
location of subclavian vein?
between anterior scalene and subclavius muscle
31
What’s the interscalene triangle
Between anterior and middle scalene | Subclsvian artery and brachial plexus are in it
32
What’s the classification for cervical rib and what are the stages
Gruber classification 1. Less than 2.5 cm 2. More than 2.5 cm 3. Connected to the first rib with fibrous band 4. Connected with an actual articulation joint
33
Adson test
``` Sitting with hands on the knees Turn head to concerned side Deep inhale Radical pulse disappears High false positive rate ```
34
What is Profunda-popliteal collateral index and what is it used for?
PPCI is calculated as the difference between the above-knee and below-knee blood pressure divided by the above-knee pressure. Low index indicates good collateral development (little pressure drop across the knee) An index < 0.25 predicts a good result from profundaplasty without infrainguinal bypass. PPCI of greater than 0.50 predicts no improvement with profundaplasty alone.
