Module 9 Flashcards
One (Single) Point Injection
Injection and drainage from one location
Split Injection
Injection from one site and drainage from a separate site
Multipoint Injection
Vascular injection that utilizes two or more injection sites.
Restricted Cervical
A method of injection, wherein both common carotid arteries are raised, that offers the greatest control over entry of arterial fluid into the head. It is useful on cases with time delays, poor distribution as a result of clotting, edema, and difficulty in firming as a result of drug therapy
Instant Tissue Fixation
Embalming technique that uses a very strong arterial solution (often waterless). The solution is injected under high pressure in spurts into a body area. Very little solution is injected; the technique attempts to limit swelling; for example, in bodies with facial trauma or early decomposition
Alternate Drainage
Method of injection-drainage in which embalming solution is injected and then injection is stopped whil drainage is open.
Concurrent Drainage
Method of drainage in which drainage occurs continuously during vascular (arterial) injection
Intermittent (Restricted) Drainage
Method of drainage in which the drainage is stopped at intervals while the injection continues
