---|---|---|---|---|---|
PPG | documents venous insuffciency
🗑
|
||||
PPG | has a quantitate venous (not qual) this gives number
🗑
|
||||
screening procedure for detection of venous reflux | PPG
🗑
|
||||
Limitations of PPG | acute dvt (contra), improper placement (like on varicose veins wont get accurate), thickening of skin ( bec/ wont penetration), or non intact skin (cant use tape)
🗑
|
||||
PT positioning for PPG | pt has dangling legs and non weight bearing
🗑
|
||||
This measures volume changes | these are physical properties of PPG
🗑
|
||||
photo is not true plethysmography because | its not true wont measure volume just light reflection
🗑
|
||||
Photo is done where? | in microcirculation
🗑
|
||||
Photocell consitst of | light emitting diode and photo sensor
🗑
|
||||
diode trasmits infared light into subcut. Tissue, this is | reflected back to sensor
🗑
|
||||
Is light absorbed with photo pleth? | no it is reflected back
🗑
|
||||
what determines the reflection of the light in PPG | cutaneous blood flow how fast
🗑
|
||||
blood attenuates light in proportion to its | content in the tissue
🗑
|
||||
increased blood flow results in | decreased reflection (but this is displayed as an increase/positive deflection on the waveform bigger waveform)
🗑
|
||||
DC mode used for | venous (doppler). detects slower changes in blood content.
🗑
|
||||
AC mode used for | arterial. Detects fast changes in blood content
🗑
|
||||
calibration for PPG do not calibrate as with air pleth why? | need same size or gain throughout so show signif. volume difference
🗑
|
||||
tiny arterial pulsations | normal for tiny veins
🗑
|
||||
where put sensors | 5
🗑
|
||||
What use with strip recorder | slow speed (5 mm/sec)
🗑
|
||||
stylus records on | heat sensitive paper
🗑
|
||||
what do you instruct pt to do at beginning of exam? | complete a series of exaggerated dorsiflexions to empty calf veins
🗑
|
||||
what do you do if pt can not do dorsi flexions? | manually compress calves bilaterally to ensure consistency
🗑
|
||||
Why continue to obtain tracing after flexions/compressions? | to record venous refill time/venous reactive time(VRT)
🗑
|
||||
if the VRT is <20 sec what do you do? | repeat the exam to eliminate influence of superficial system
🗑
|
||||
what is a normal VRT? | > or greater than 20 seconds without tourniquet
🗑
|
||||
Interpretation VRT is | quantitative
🗑
|
||||
for superficial incompetence in VRT is? | Less than 20 seconds w/o tourniquet but normalizes (>20) w/ tourniquet
🗑
|
||||
deep system incompetence in VRT is? | VRT of <20 sec. W/ and w/o tourniquet application
🗑
|
||||
Artifact due to pt movement | study technically impossible due duplex
🗑
|
||||
Absent deflections or gross irregular tracings? | ensure equipment is on DC mode and PPG settings
🗑
|
||||
Deflections off the scale or barely discernible? | adjust gain setting (only at first of test)
🗑
|
||||
Normal then? | normal VRT
🗑
|
||||
Short time VRT then repeat then normal means | superficial venous incompetence
🗑
|
||||
short time VRT then repeat then short means | deep venous incompetence
🗑
