Study Notes
Multiple Choice Questions - Study Notes
-
Subcutaneous Emphysema: Expressed as an antemortem condition caused by surgery or trauma, not a postmortem intravascular or microbial invasion.
-
Extravascular Discoloration: Petechiae, purpura, and ecchymosis are examples. Hypostasis is not an extravascular discoloration.
-
Jaundice Cause: Bilirubin is the bile pigment responsible for jaundice.
-
Nephritis Skin Color Change: Nephritis can cause the skin to turn a bronze-like color, not reddish-purplish, sallow-yellow or yellow-green.
-
Formaldehyde Grey: Caused by using a too strong arterial solution or a too rapid rate of flow, not a mixture of blood with the arterial solution or an inappropriate arterial solution.
-
Ante-mortem Dehydration: TB can cause dehydration. Blood thickens and clots during dehydration. Tissue can have an alkaline value. Skin darkening may also occur.
-
Dehydration (General): Rapid injection and continuous drainage can cause dehydration. Surface dehydration is critical. Intermittent drainage helps prevent dehydration. A hypertonic solution maintains moisture balance.
-
Aneurysm Definition: An abnormal dilation of a blood vessel, or a thickening and calcification of an artery wall is an aneurysm. Heavily congested blood, or ruptures, are not.
-
Carbon Monoxide Poisoning Effects: Carbon monoxide poisoning may cause the skin to turn cherry red, not blue-black, sickly white or sallow yellowish.
-
Infant Definition: An infant is any baby weighing 2,500 grams or less at birth.
-
Body Water at Birth: Approximately 70% of a newborn baby's total body weight is comprised of water.
-
Short-term Refrigeration Advantages: Short-term refrigeration slows down the rigor mortis cycle, potentially preventing tissue gas formation or skin slip and edema.
-
Diabetes Mellitus Definition: A chronic metabolic disorder. Not acute.
-
Bilirubin Conversion: Bilirubin converts to biliverdin after embalming.
-
Humectants and Decomposition: Humectants are not recommended for decomposed cases.
-
Tissue Gas Bacilli: Transmission of tissue gas bacilli from one body part to another via contaminated instruments is possible. All cases of decomposition do not involve tissue gas. Decomposition is a post-mortem chemical change.
