37
Q

The axillary and cephalic join to become the

A

subclavain

38
Q

39
Q

What 2 veins form the brachiochephalic

A

40
Q

The right and left innominate drain into what

A

SVC

41
Q

The SVC carries blood to which atrium of the heart

a) right atrium
b) left atrium

A

a) right atrium

42
Q

Which layer is thinner in veins

a) intima
b) media
c) adventita

A

b) media

43
Q

_____ valves are bicuspid extensions of the intimal layer

A

Venous

44
Q

What is the purpose of venous valves

A

To prevent backflow and maintain unidirectional flow

45
Q

_______ blood has the the greatest hemodynamic challenge to overcome

A

Venous blood

46
Q

Where in the body is hydrostatic pressure greatest at

A

closest to ankle

47
Q

Where in the body are the most number of valves

A

veins in the calf

48
Q

What happens to the number of valves as you get closer to the abdomen

a) increase
b) decrease

A

b) decrease

49
Q

Name 2 parts of the body where there are no valves

A

1) chest
2) abdomen
-examples are IVC, SVC, and iliac veins

50
Q

How many valves do arms typically have

A

very few usually 1 per vein

51
Q

Perforators must have at least ____ valve

A

1

52
Q

Where does blood flow from the basilic vein

a) axillary
b) brachial
c) cephalic
d) radial

A

a) axillary

53
Q

How many valves does the IVC have?

a) 3
b) 1
c) 2
d) 0

A

d) 0

54
Q

Where does the blood flow from the renal veins

a) kidneys
b) IVC
c) SMV
d) portal vein

A

b) IVC

55
Q

What drains the livers blood?

a) hepatic veins
b) IVC
c) hepatic artery
d) portal vein

A

a) hepatic veins

  • the hepatic veins drain the livers blood. The portal veins drain blood into the liver
56
Q

The GSV empties blood into what vessel?

a) CFV
b) FV
c) superior epigastric vein
d) external iliac vein

A

a) CFV

57
Q

What describes the function of the soleal vein?

a) to act as a reservoirs used in correlation with the calf muscle pump
b) to act as perforating veins
c) to drain blood from the muscles into the superficial system
d) to accumulate into dilated channels emptying into SSV

A

a) to act as a reservoirs used in correlation with the calf muscle pump

-These pockets collect blood until the next calf contraction when blood is ejected into the deep veins and propelled towards the heart

58
Q

Blood from the axillary vein will flow into which of the following vessels?

a) cephalic vein
b) IJV
c) brachial vein
d) innominate vein

A

d) innominate vein

-Follow the path of blood flow. From the axillary vein, blood flows as follows:

axillary > subclavain > innominate > SVC > Rt atrium

59
Q

Which of the following veins would contain the most amount of valves?

a) PTV
b) FV
c) perforating vein
d) brachial

A

a) PTV

-Valves aid in returning venous blood upwards toward the heart. The most amount of valves would be in the veins in the calves since they have the greatest hydrostatic pressure

60
Q

The lesser saphenous vein is located where?

a) Between the crural fascia and the muscular fascia
b) Located in the hypodermis layer
c) Between the greater saphenous vein and the femoral vein
d) Between the superficial fascia layer and the epidermis

A

b) Located in the hypodermis layer

61
Q

Where does blood flow from the basilic vein?

a) axillary vein
b) brachial vein
c) cephalic vein
d) radial vein

A

a) axillary vein

Blood flow FROM the basilic vein INTO the axillary vein

62
Q

What paired vein lies closest to the fibula?

a) posterior tibial
b) peroneal
c) anterior tibial
d) plantar

A

b) peroneal

63
Q

What is the name for the perforating veins found in the medial side of the mid to lower calf?

a) cockett’s
b) dodd’s
c) hunterian
d) sherman’s

A

a) cockett’s

64

b) small saphenous to popliteal vein
c) small saphenous to great saphenous
d) gastrocnemius to soleal

A

c) small saphenous to great saphenous
