    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.
