Vascular Module Step 2 Step 2 (1 hour) Complete Self Learning Pre-Tests (no minimum score to move on to next section, 5 Questions per section) Main Vessels Evaluation 1. The use of real time ultrasound guidance for central line insertion has been shown to specifically reduce mostly which type of complication?* Infectious Mechanical Thrombotic 2. Which of the following vessel has had the most literature support on the use of ultrasound guidance for its cannulation?* Internal jugular vien Subclavian vein Peripheral vein Femoral vein 3. ‘Dynamic’ approach for line insertion using ultrasound means:* The procedure is done blindly but after having localized the vein prior to procedure The procedure is performed under direct guidance, with real time view of the needle The procedure is done with ultrasound in the Doppler mode to see the dynamic blood flow The procedure is done with ultrasound after the blind approach fails 4. Which of the following is one of the advantage of using the longitudinal (long-axis) view for ultrasound-guided insertion of a catheter* Lower risk of perforating the posterior wall of the vein View clarifies position of vein and artery to one another Easiest plane to perform cannulation Ideal when space is limited 5. Venous valves:* A. are only found in veins B. can sometimes be found in arteries C. are located near the point of entry of major tributary veins D. both A and C
