Q

What is the least important risk factor for secondary VTE

a. Stasis
b. Hypercoagulability
c. Endothelial Damage
d. NOTA

A

B

Of these risk factors, relative
hypercoagulability appears most important in most cases of spontaneous VTE, or so-called idiopathic VTE, whereas stasis and endothelial damage likely play a greater role in secondary
VTE

Q

True about DVT EXCEPT

a. venous thrombosis is thought to begin in an area of relative stasis such as a soleal sinus vein or downstream of the cusps of a venous valve in an axial calf vein.
b. Isolated proximal DVT without tibial vein thrombosis is unusual
c. History and PE are very reliable in diagnosis of DVT
d. DVT has been found by venography or DUS in <=50% of patients in whom it was clinically suspected

A

C

Hx and PE very unreliable

20
Q

Extensive DVT of the major axial deep venous channels of the lower extremity with relative sparing of collateral veins causes a condition called ________. This is ccharacterized by pain and pitting edema with associated cyanosis

A

phlegmasia cerulea dolens

21
Q

Extensive DVT of the major axial deep venous channels of the lower extremity with involvement of collateral veins, vausing massive fluid sequestration and more significant edema results in a condition known as

A

phlegmasia alba dolens

22
Q

The ff can be complicated by venous gangrene and the need for amputation

a. phlegmasia cerulea dolens
b. phlegmasia alba dolens
c. both
d. neither

A

C; both of them

23
Q

From the common femoral through the popliteal vein, the primary method of detecting DVT with ultrasound is demonstration what finding?

A

Lack of compressibility of the vein with probe pressure on B-mode imaging.

24
Q

Lower extremity DVT can be diagnosed by any of the ff DUS findings EXCEPT

a. lack of spontaneous flow
b. inability to compress vein
c. absence of color filling of the lumen by color flow DUS
c. loss of respiratory flow variation
d. venous distension

A

NOTA

25
Q

What is the primary diagnosit variable for DVT?

A

lack of venous compression on B-mode imaging

26
Q

What are the 3 vascular lab and radiologic evaluations for DVT?

A 
D VIP
DUS
Venography
Iodine-125 Fibrinogen Uptake
Impedance plethysmography
27
Q

This diagnostic is the gold standard to which other diagnostic modalities for DVT are compared.

A

Venography

28
Q 
Noninvasive method of diagnosing DVT. Changes in electrical resistance resulting from lower extermity blood volume changes are quantified. 
a. DUS
b. Venography
c Iodine-125 Fibrinogen Uptake
d. Impedance plethysmography
A

D

29
Q

What is a positive result of venography?

A

failure to fill the deep system with passage of contrast medium into the superficial system or demonstration of discrete filling defects.

30
Q

Why is venography not currently used in practice?

A

Invasiveness and complication risk

31
