arterial and venous insufficiency

refers to inadequate drainage of venous blood from a body part

refers to lack of adequate blood flow to a region of the body

what refers to lack of adequate blood flow to a region of the body

arterial insufficiency

in what are veins not bringing blood back to the heart

in what is blood stuck in distal parts of the body

venous insufficiency

in what are vessels not bring blood effectively to the body

arterial insufficiency

where is arterial insufficiency the worst (where is the impact the worst)

distal body parts like the hands or feet

what are four different types of wounds

pressure injury, arterial insufficiency wound, venous insufficiency wound, and neuropathic wounds

what are four different types of wounds

pressure injury, arterial insufficiency wound, venous insufficiency wound, and neuropathic wounds

what are four different types of wounds

pressure injury, arterial insufficiency wound, venous insufficiency wound, and neuropathic wounds

what is the clinical presentation of venous insufficiency wounds (9)

proximal to the medial malleolus, irregular and shallow appearance, flaking, brownish discoloration, wet, mild to moderate pain, elevation decreases pain, there will be a pulse, and swelling

what is the clinical presentation of venous insufficiency wounds (9)

proximal to the medial malleolus, irregular and shallow appearance, flaking, brownish discoloration, wet, mild to moderate pain, elevation decreases pain, there will be a pulse, and swelling

what is the clinical presentation of venous insufficiency wounds (9)

proximal to the medial malleolus, irregular and shallow appearance, flaking, brownish discoloration, wet, mild to moderate pain, elevation decreases pain, there will be a pulse, and swelling

what is a brownish discoloration

hemosiderin staining

what is a hemosiderin staining

brownish discoloration

what is the clinical presentation of arterial insufficiency wounds (13)

wounds appear on the lower 1/3rd of the leg, toe, dorsum of the foot, and lateral malleolus; smooth edges, well defined, tend to be deep; thin and shiny skin; hair loss; yellow nails; dry skin; severe pain; intermittent claudication; elevation increase pain; no pulses; usually does not have swelling; dry skin; and sometimes have more instances of eschar due to loss of perfusion

what wound is proximal to the medial malleolus

venous insufficiency wounds

what wound is irregular and shallow in appearance

venous insufficiency wound

what wound is flaking

venous insufficiency wound

what wound is brownish discoloration

venous insufficiency wound

what wound has mild to moderate pain

venous insufficiency wound

what wound has elevation decreasing pain

venous insufficiency wound

what wound often has swelling

venous insufficiency wound

what wound will have a pulse

venous insufficiency wound

what wound has a lot of drainage

venous insufficiency wound

what wound is often located in the lower 1/3rd of the leg, toe, dorsum of the foot, and lateral malleolus

arterial insufficiency wound

what wound has smooth edges that are well defined and tend to be deep

arterial insufficiency wound

what wound has thin and shiny skin

arterial insufficiency wound

what wound has hair loss

arterial insufficiency wound

what wound has yellow nails

arterial insufficiency wound

what wound has dry skin

arterial insufficiency wound

what wound has severe pain

arterial insufficiency wound

what wound has intermittent claudication

arterial insufficiency wound

what wound has elevation increases pain

arterial insufficiency wound

what wound has no pulse

arterial insufficiency wound

what wound oftne has more eschar

arterial insufficiency wound

what wound usually does not have swelling

arterial insufficiency wound

what is the location of the venous insufficiency wounds

proximal to the medial malleolus

what is the location of arterial insufficiency wounds

lower 1/3rd of the leg, toe, dorsum of the foot, and lateral malleolus

what is the look of venous insufficiency wounds

irregular shallow appearnace

what is the look of aretrial insufficiency wounds

smooth edges, well defined, and tend to be deep

why does elevation decrrease pain with venous insufficiency wounds

the blood is able to get back to the heart so youhave a decrease in the pooling of blood to people can feel better

why does elevation increase pain with arterial insufficiency wounds

they can not get blood in the extremities so this does not help that

where is pain often located with inermittent claudication

in the calf

why does arterial insufficiency have severe pain

there is no blood to supply the body parts and that really hurts (it is like how if you do not have enough money to buy something it hurts a lot)

what is the clinical appearance of a pressure injury (1)

it Depends on the stage the wound is at

what is the clinical presentation of neuropathic wounds (3)

punched out, calloused around the edges, and often occurs at the bottom of the foot

what is the clinical presentation of neuropathic wounds (3)

punched out, calloused around the edges, and often occurs at the bottom of the foot

what is the clinical presentation of neuropathic wounds (3)

punched out, calloused around the edges, and often occurs at the bottom of the foot

what is the clinical appearance of a pressure injury (1)

it Depends on the stage the wound is at

what is the clinical appearance of a pressure injury (1)

it Depends on the stage the wound is at

what is intermittent claudication

pain affecting the calf, and less commonly the thigh and buttock, that is induced by exercise and relieved by rest

what is the pain affecting the calf, and less commonly the thigh and buttock, that is induced by exercise and relieved by rest

intermittent claudication

what causes intermittent claudication

Peripheral artery disease causing poor perfusion; During exercise the oxygen demands of the tissues increase and the perfusion needs increase and the artery can not keep up with the demand

what is the treatment for intermittent claudication

walking program to get used to the ability to get blood in the arteries

hypertension is common with what type of wound

arterial insufficiency wound

a history of painful cramping in the legs especially after walking for a few minutes indicates what

intermittent claudication

where are diabetic ulcers often located

weight bearing surface of the foot

what type of wounds are often located on the weight bearing surface of the foot

diabetic ulcers

what are the result of unrelieved extenral pressure on an area

pressure ulcers

what are risk factors for a pressure injury (7)

decreased sensation, decreased mobility, poor nutrition, incontinence, metabolic and systemic disorders, tobacco use, and medical procedures and problems (If you are in one position for an extended period of time or have an external device that can lead to increased levels of pressure over one area)
