Embalming Final Practice
when embalming cases of known infectious disease cases, it is recommended to aspirate the cavities when
immediately after arterial injection
which of the following is not an objective of drainage procedures
increase the secondary dilution of the arterial fluid
the act or instance of forcing a fluid into the vascular system or directly into tissues defines
injection pressure
Force created as the flow of embalming solution is established and the arterial walls expand and contract, resulting in filling of the capillary beds and development of pressure filtration defines:
intravascular pressure
imaginary line drawn on the surface of the skin to represent approximate location of a deeper structure
linear guide
condition in which interstitial spaces contain excessive fluid, skin remains depressed when touched
pitted edema
an extravascular color change where heme is released by red blood cells and seeps into the tissues
post mortem stain
pressure indicated by the injector gauge needle when the embakming machine is running and the rate of flow is closed defines
potential pressure
passive transport system enabling the passage of arterial solution from the capillary to the tissue fluid defines
pressure filtration
the strength of the arterial solution mixed in the embalming machine defines
primary dilution
Speed at which solution is injected; measured in ounces per minute
rate of flow
which of the following is true in regards to subcutaneous emphysema
results from some sort of trauma
decrease in concentration of the arterial solution by vascular and interstitial fluids defines
secondary dilution
if a body part has been mutilated, which of the following procedures is recommended
sectional embalming
how much fluid needed to make one gallon of solution with the strength of 3 percent using a 25 index fluid
15.36
for effective disinfection and preservation the minimum hcho solution should be what percentage
2
if you mix 32 oz of a 25 index fluid to 384 oz of water, what percentage of HCHO will you have
2
if you mix 32 oz fluid of a 32 index in 456 oz of water what percent hcho
2.2
what letter identifies the index of fluid
C
When might a funeral service practitioner want to utilize a larvicide in the prep process?
Deceased found outside
distension of the tissues beneath the skin by gas or air not caused b bacteria
subcutaneous emphysema
What does V1 represent?
the overall volume of fluid to be injected
of the following, which could contribute to extravascular resistance to fluid distribution
tumor
how can the funeral practitioner treat a case of extravascular discoloration during the embalming process
use of a bleaching agent
pressure indiacted by the injector gauge needle when the arterial tube is open and the arterial solution is flowing into the body defines
actual pressure
in which of the following cases might the deceased have extravascular resistance that could inhibit fluid distribution and drainage
anasarca
in which of the following cases might it be recommended to employ waterless embalming
anasarca case
The accumulation of serous fluids in the peritoneal cavity
ascites
operative or mechanical aid where an absorbent material is inserted into a body area where moisture is present and the material draws moisture outside of the body
chenneling
which of the following might cause an intravascular issue while injecting arterial solution
coronary artery disease
rigidity of tissue due to chemical reaction of solution is known as
distribution
A substance is dissolved in a solvent to form a solution, in the profession of funeral service which of the following is the solute for the arterial solution?
embalming fluid added to the embalming machine
which of the following is not an example of an extravascular influences on embalming
emboli
any increase in rbc is called
erythrocytosis
what color is associated with HCHO and hemoglobin to form methyl hemoglobin
gray
