K UE blood supply

The right side of the heart contains what type of blood from the body traveling to the lungs?

deoxygenated

The left side of the heart takes what type of blood from the lungs to the rest of the body?

oxygenated

When the blood is deoxygenated it is moving from ..... to ...... from.....

superior/inferior vena cavas TO

pulmonary artery FROM heart

Oxygenated blood is moving from.... to ...... from.....

pulmonary vein TO heart

aorta FROM heart

Why are arteries thicker than veins?

They are under constant pressure from the heart and blood flow, so they need to be strong enough to hold against the pressure, they contain muscles

What are the 3 branches of the aortic arch?

1. brachiocephalic artery

2. left common carotid

3. left subclavian artery

Where do the branches of arterys come off of on the heart?

the aortic arch

What is the division of the left subclavian artery?

left vertebral and axillary

What is the division of the brachiocephalic artery?

carotid, subclavian

When an axillary artery passes the ....... muscle it becomes the brachial artery?

tendon of the teres major

When the brachial artery passes through the elbow crease, it breaks into what arteries?

ulnar and radial arteries

What is a collateral artery?

branches from other arteries, typically rejoins w/ other arteries distally

What is a recurrent artery?

branches & turns around to direct blood flow in the opposite direction. Hooks a U turn

What are interosseus arteries?

arteries that supply the muslces of the forearm

The brachial artery supplies theses muslces: (3)

biceps brachii, triceps brachii, coracobrachialis

The anterior ulnar recurrent artery supplies these 3 areas:

elbow, pronator teres, brachialis

The elbow, forearm flexors is supplied by this artery

posterior ulnar recurrent artery

The deep anterior forearm is supplied by this artery

anterior interosseous artery

The posterior interosseous artery supplies this:

deep posterior forearm

The radial recurrent artery supplies these 2 muscles

brachioradialis, brachialis

What forms the four arterial arches of the hand?

palmar carpal, dorsal carpal, deep palmar, superficial palmar

Palmar capral and dorsal capral arterial arches are deep or superficial?

superficial

Which arterial arch in the hand is mostly radial artery?

Deep Palmar arch

Which artery arch supplies intrinsic hand muslces ?

Deep Palmar arch

Which artery arch in the hand supplies the thenar muslces & intrinsic hand muslces?

superficial palmar arch

Which arterial arch in the hand is mostly ulnar artery?

Superficial palmar arch

Which vein is mostly used for blood draws?

Median antebrachial / median cubital vein

What are the 3 deep veins in the arm?

Radial, ulnar, palmar venous arches

Median cubital vein is considered deep or superificial?

superficial

Radial vein is a deep vein that runs alongside this superficial vein?

Cephalic

Basilic is a superficial vein that runs alongside this deep vein?

Ulnar

The radial vein is deep to what vein?

Median cubital vein in the cubital fossa

Blood pressure is measured via what artery? placed where?

Brachial , just above antecubital fossa

Radial arteries can be used for blood pressure, but why wouldn't you want to?

it is further down the artery track, so if the patient has blood flow concerns you wouldn't get the best reading of their BP , so it could be weaker

When you want a pulse rate via at the wrist, what type of pulse is that?

radial pulse, at the radial artery

When there is a cuff on the arm to take a pulse, what artery are you using?

Brachial pulse on the brachial artery

BP cuff for pulse IS NOT good when a patient has this condition?

AFib

What vein should NOT be used for blood draws & why?

basilic vein, it lies close to the brachial nerve/artery

What is a lesser common vein to draw blood from but can be used?

Cephalic vein , it just rolls around

What veins does a PICC line go into usually?

basilic, brachial, cephalic

PICC lines are high risk for infection, why?

They are inserted in veins, so the infection can travel directly to the heart...

Central lines are inserted in what veins?

Internal jugular

Ports are inserted in what veins & why do they use ports?

subclavian, to recieve chemo/antibotics, longterm medicine

What is the most common site for lines & drains on the artery side?

Radial artery in the wrist

If an arterial line pulls out of someone, what is the danger?

blood spewing everywhere on that bih

What is a AV fistula? What is it used for?

Connect an artery & a vein to create a larger area to stick w/ lines/needles. It is used for dialysis uslally

What are the 2 arteries/veins preferred for an AV fistula?

radiocephalic, brachiocephalic

What is the purpose of an LVAD?

help stimulate left ventricle to send blood out arteries , short term waiting for new heart

Who died because his girlfriend cut his LVAD wire?

Denny :(

What is an IABP?

Intra-Aortic Balloon Pump

When someone has an IABP what controls the heart rhythm?

the balloon inside the heart is connected to the machine outside the body, that pumps it according to their rhythm

What does ECMO stand for and what does it do?

Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation.

Insert a tube in the body that connects to a pump/oxygenator that pumps the body through the body. The heart DOES NOT DO ANYTHING AT ALL.

Veno-Venous Cannulation follows what rotation?

PUmps blood from femoral artery, to the 'heart' (pump), then to the oxygenator machine, then to the internal jugular then to hte right atrium of heart

Veno-arterial Cnnulation follows what rotation?

starts at femoral vein, goes to pump, then oxygenator, then femoral arterys

The right collecting duct of the lymphatic system drains where?

head, neck, right arm

The left collecting duct of the lymphatic system drains where?

Lower body, rest of the thorax

Define lymph?

leadked fluid from capillaries that is not reabsorbed

Define lymphatic vessels?

one way, valve vessel that transport lymph through nodes en route to collecting ducts

Define lymph nodes?

Glads that filter lymph, support immune health

Define lymphatic ducts

all lymph vessels drain into, fluid goes to the subclavian veins and returns to system

If you remove lymph nodes in upper extreimeity what cancer could it cause?

breast

If you remove lymph nodes or have problems with them in the lower extremity, what cancers could they cause?

vulvar, ovarian, endometrial, cervical, colorectal
