Q

3 PT considerations with Peripheral Vascular Bypass Grafting

A

*** 24-48 hrs to recover hemodynamic stability (VS closely monitored)
**Often no WB restriction (but always check)
**Keep LE extended and elevated when possible

Q

ARTERIOGRAPHY/ contrast angiography PT considerations
what to monitor , how long on bed rest,

A

BUN and creatinine monitored
Frequent vital sign monitoring, with pulse assessments.

Q

Polycythemia

A

Excessive RBCs
issue in bone marrow

17
Q

Disseminated intravascular coagulation

A

Massive clotting cascade that produces both clotting and hemorrhaging

18
Q

stages of lymphedema visual

A

stage 0= subclinical
stage 1 = early buildup of fluid with high protein count, some swelling may be present
stage 2 = irreversible, interventions start not working, pitting is present
stage 3 = lot going on here

19
Q

stemmers sign

A

pull skin and release (normal) , + = skin cant be pinched and lifted ( too much swelling)

20
Q

Negative pressure gradient lymph mobility
how diaphramatic and MLD help

A

Lymph flows from high pressured to low pressured areas.
MLD: reduces trunk pressure thus allowing fluid to flow out of extremity.
diaphragmatic breathing: pulling fluid out of extremities
