Yet Another Hemodynamic & Shock Quiz

True or False. An Embolus is a freely movable, intravascular mass that's carried from one anatomic site to another by the blood.

The most common form of emboli that represent fragments of thrombi carried by venous or arterial blood is best known as:

Which embolus includes fat emboli occurring after bone fracture and amniotic fluid emboli caused by placental abruption?

Which emboli is produced by injecting air, that is liberated under pressure, into veins?

True or False. Saddle emboli are like cholesterol crystals that can detach from atherosclerotic plaques, as well as from tumor cells, bone marrow emboli or bullets.

Which type of emboli is typically known for causing pulmonary embolism after being lodged in the pulmonary artery?

____________ originate in the left atrium or ventricle, aorta and major arteries; carried by arterial blood; and are important causes of Infarction.

Which is/(are) common site(s) for Arterial Emboli?

What would be a common source for Venous Emboli?

True or False. Paradoxical Emboli are venous emboli that reach the arterial circulation through the foramen ovale or an interventricular septal defect, that can cause Sx similar to those of arterial emboli.

__________ is the most important complication of venous emboli that typically originate in the deep veins of the lower extremities. Massive _____________ may occlude the main pulmonary artery or its branches.

This type of emboli is often lethal because they prevent the entry of blood into the lungs and cause acute right heart failure and severe hypotension. They are large venous clots at the entry of the main pulmonary artery.

Sources of arterial emboli include:

Arterial Emboli originate from common causes of ischemia in various organs and most originate from the __________ or from _________ thrombi.

Which organ is typically at risk for an arterial emboli? Which artery is typically lodged?

Splen infarcts that are also susceptible to arterial emboli are usually associated with:

Which best describes the result of an embolus that lodges in one of the mjor intestinal arteries, causing gangrene and necrosis of the bowel?

Which embolus is particularly with long bone fractures?

Fat Embolism Syndrome (FES) appears 1-3 days after fatty marrow into damaged blood vessels following severe trauma to fat-containing tissue and its most severe form is characterized by______________

The transformation of fluid blood into a solid aggregate encompassing blood cells and fibrin defines:

The 4 types of Thrombi locations are:

Common sites of Thrombus formation include:

The most common reason for DIC, which is typical of Microvascular Thrombi, is due to:

The two classifications of thrombi are ________ composed of tightly intermixed RBCs and fibrin, and ________, which have cellular elements and fibrin microscopically called _______.

Which term is an insufficiency of blood supply of sudden onset that results in an area of ischemic necrosis; caused by either thrombosis or emboli and may be arterial or venous?

_________ are typical of arterial occlusion in solid organs (heart, kidneys, etc.) ________ are typical of venous obstruction involving the intestines or testes.

Acute myocardial infarcts and splenic infarcts are examples of

Cecal volvulus, twisting of the mesentery and testicular torsion are examples of

As a result of venous compression, this leads to:

Myocardial infarcts cannot be repaired except by replacement of damaged cells with fibrous tissue. This results in:

Which other organ cannot repair itself by regeneration, without fibrous scars forming and instead leaving behind a cyst filled with clear fluid?

The process that the brain has to take on the cyst filled cavity that liquefied brain tissue left behind is known as

Which infarction is caused by infected thrombi or emboli that shows signd of inflammation and may transform into an abscess that heals poorly due to inadequate blood supply to infarcted area?

Shock is best defined as:

Cellular hypoxia causes a shift from aerobic to anaerobic metabolism with an increased production in what?

Major causes of shock include all of the following except

Cardiogenic shock results in the loss of contractile elements deceasing the heart's ability to pump blood, leading to heart failure and possible arrhythmia. Similar consequences may result with:

True or False. Hypotonic shock results from a loss of ciculatory volume, attributed to massive hemorrhage or to water loss related to a massive burn, vomiting, or diarrhea.

The most common cause of death in ICU's is due to which type of shock?

The vasoconstriction of renal blood vessels results in renal hypoperfusion and a decreased GFR, activates renin-angiotensin system, thus increasing the cardiac output and blood pressure. This stage of shock is reversible and treatable.

In the Progressive stage, ________ also has a depressive effect on the heart, further potentiating pump failure, favoring the formation of pulmonary edema and ARDS.

Waterhouse-Friderichsen Syndrome is a disease of

is the most important complication of venous emboli that typically originate in the deep veins of the lower extremities. Massive ___ may occlude the main pulmonary artery or its branches.

Arterial Emboli originate from common causes of ischemia in various organs and most originate from the __ or from _ thrombi.

The two classifications of thrombi are __ composed of tightly intermixed RBCs and fibrin, and , which have cellular elements and fibrin microscopically called _.

_ are typical of arterial occlusion in solid organs (heart, kidneys, etc.) are typical of venous obstruction involving the intestines or testes.
