Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a disease made up of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE). It is a common‚ lethal disorder that affects 10% to 20% in general medical patients and up to 80% in critically ill patients. This disorder recurs frequently‚ is often overlooked‚ and results in long-term complications. It is important to determine the benefits of preventing VTE through pharmacological modality such as low-molecular-weight heparin and also non-pharmacological modality such

Venous Ulcer A venous ulcer is a shallow sore on your lower leg caused by poor circulation of the veins. This condition used to be called a stasis ulcer. Veins have valves that help blood return to the heart. If these valves do not work properly‚ blood flows backward and backs up into the veins near the skin. This causes the blood to pool in your lower legs. The blood can then can leak out of your veins and irritate your skin. This may cause a break in your skin and lead to stasis venous ulcer

central venous catheters. There are different types of catheters and they are used in different situations. If they are to be used properly‚ they must be maintained and cared for. If they are not maintained there are several adverse side effects that could be life threatening. Along with providing all this information‚ this paper will also instruct how to initiate a peripherally inserted central catheter and how to correctly execute a dressing change.

The severity of venous insufficiency differs with each person. If the problem goes untreated‚ the person may feel continuous symptoms of pain‚ swelling and fatigue in the legs and ankles. If the problem is advanced there are other symptoms such as leg ulcers‚ superficial thrombophlebitis‚ spontaneous bleeding and‚ possibly‚ deep vein thrombosis. Our

d) When you stand up‚ venous pooling occurs due to gravity where about 20% of the blood in the body pools in the lower limbs and does not return to the heart straight away therefore the amount of blood that is pumped around the body when you stand up decreases and the arterial blood pressure drops. Venous compliance is high and veins are able to easily expand with blood therefore most of the shift in blood volume occurs in the veins. Venous volume in the lower limbs becomes very high when standing

Venous Ulcers Homework 1. True/false: The medium and large veins in the leg have bicuspid valves to prevent retrograde venous blood flow‚ but the perforating veins do not have valves. False 2. What causes the ulcers to form in patients with venous insufficiency? [The question is what causes ulcers to form‚ not what causes venous insufficiency (people can have venous insufficiency and varicose veins for years without ulceration)] Ulceration is caused by hypoxia‚ which is a decrease in the amount
