Q

Gastric Bypass (3 Steps)

A

1) Small stomach pouch created
2) Small intestine cut pass duodenum and small pouch attached to middle part of small intestine
3) End of duodenum attached in same spot in middle part of small intestine

17
Q

Gastric Bypass (New Functioning)

A

Food enters small stomach pouch and heads down into small intestine.
Pancreatic Juices, Bile from Liver, and Stomach Enzymes still meet food, but at middle section of small intestine.

18
Q

The pancreas has an endocrine gland that secretes ____ into the _____ and perform the following function:

A

secretes “insulin” into the “bloodstream” and will regulate blood glucose levels by decreasing.

19
Q

The pancreas also secretes ____ into the ____.

A

secretes “digestive enzymes” into the “small intestine”

20
Q

Type 1 diabetes problem: what is not working, what is still working?

A

patient pancreas not secreting enough insulin, however, digestive enzymes are still functioning.

21
Q

Pancreas Transplant Steps

A

1) Donor pancreas is cut off INCLUDING duodenum
2) Donated pancreas and duodenum are attached to recipient small intestine
3) Recipient’s Illiac Artery and Vein attached to new donor pancreas.

22
Q

Hepatic Portal Vein Transports what kind of blood?

A

Oxygen Poor

23
Q

Hepatic Portal Vein Transports nutrient poor or rich blood?

A

Nutrient Rich

24
Q

Why might you need a hepatic portal vein bypass surgery?

A

You may have cirrhosis of the liver, caused by Hep C and or alcohol abuse

25
Q

What is cirrhosis?

A

Scar tissue accumulates on the liver, causing massive pressure in the hepatic portal vein. This can cause blood in the esophagus, or the stomach. Bad internal bleeding.

26
Q

Hepatic Portal Vein Bypass Surgery

A

Simply cut the hepatic portal vein and connect it to the inferior vena cava, causing blood to bypass the liver altogether.

27
Q

Living Liver Donor Transplant (which piece, and 4 connections)

A

Right lobe given to recipient

1) Hepatic Vein-Hepatic Vein
2) Hepatic Artery-Hepatic Artery
3) Hepatic Portal Vein-Hepatic Portal Vein
4) Bile duct-bile duct

28
Q

Kidney Transplant

A

Remove Kidney, ureter, left and right renal artery from donor
Add to recipient

29
Q

Path of amino acids out of body

A

Amino acids metabolized in Liver into ammonia, which is in turn changed to urea which follows ureters to the kidneys, then to urine which goes to the bladder, then to the urethra, then outside the body

30
Q

Air in trachea–> left foot

A

Trachea–>pulmonary vein–>right atrium–>right ventricle–>aorta–>iliac artery

31
Q

Carbon Dioxide Left foot–> outside body

A

Illiac vein–>inferior vena cava–>left atrium–>left ventricle–>pulmonary artery

32
Q

Pulmonary Lobectomy

A

Removal of a lobe of the lungs. Humans have 3 Right Lobes, and 2 Left Lobes.
