Arterial Line size in adults
 
3/8 inch 22 cc per foot
8
1/4 inch tubing is used for
 
cardioplegia, vent, and suckersor venous and arterial line in children
9
What is usually the narrowest part of the perfusion system?
 
Tip of the arterial cannula
10
What are the sources of intracardiac blood that must be vented?
 
Bronchial and thebesian veinsand blood that gets by the cannulas
11
Why must the heart be vented?
 
To prevent distension of the cardiac chambers. If heart is repeatedly distended it can become...
12
True or False:Tubing begins to breakdown from the outside and continues inwards
 
FalseBreakdown occurs from the inside out since inside is rubbing against itself, spallation...
13
What is occlusion?
 
How much the roller pump squeezes tubing
14
If roller pump occulsion is too tight tubing could _________ whereas if it is too loose blood/solution...
 
rupturenot adequately move through tubing
15
Vent pulls blood from ____________circulation of heart
 
collateral
16
The _________ _________ is a low pressure receiving chamber for venous blood. It facilitates...
 
venous reservoirgravity drainage
17
True or False:Vacuum assisted venous drainage is possible in a closed system venous reservoir.
 
FalseVacuum assisted venous drainage can only be used with an open system (hard shell) venous...
18
Name four different safety monitoring devices and discuss what they do and where they are located.
 
SVO2 monitorArterial line pressure alarmLow Level alarmBubble alarm
19
Cannulas should be _______ to insert, have ______ resistance to blood flow, and be ______ enough...
 
easy to inserthave low resistance to blood flowhard enough to prevent collapse
20
What cannula might have a balloon near the tip and why?
 
Cannula used in Retrograde Cardioplegia, in which the potassium solution passes through heart...
21
Where does the cannula go in Retrograde cardioplegia?
 
Coronary sinus, solution then flows backwards through venous then arterial system.
22
True or False:In Antegrade cardioplegia the superior vena cava is cannulated and the potassium...
 
FalseIn antegrade cardioplegia the cannula is inserted in the aortic root and the solution...
23
True or False: A one way valve in the vent prevents accidental introduction of air into the...
 
True
24
True or False:If the vent is placed in the aortic root that cannulation can also be used for...
 
True
25
What is a Chatter or Bump?
 
Problem with venous cannulation. Venous blood is draining too quickly causing negative pressure....
26
How can you fix a chatter or bump?
 
Reduce vacuum or partially clamp the venous line. Slow the flow
27
What is an E.R.C.?
 
Electronic Remote ClampSafety device on arterial line, occludes the line when there is a problem...
28
Pressure drop is ....
 
the difference between the pressure entering cannula and pressure leaving it
29
Pressure drop should be under ________. The ______ of the cannula will effect this value.
 
100 mmHgsize
30
Pressure gradients of greater than 100 mmHg will cause __________ and _______ ___________....
 
hemolysisprotein denaturationjetting
31
Jetting can dislodge _________ or produce aortic wall _____________.
 
plaquedissections
32
True or False:Volume is easily managed and observed in a closed system venous reservoir.
 
FalseIt is easier to manage the volume in an open system with a hard shell because it is graduated...
33
True or False:Air is passively vented to atmosphere in an open system venous reservoir.
 
True
34
What are some disadvantages of the open system venous reservoir?
 
Possibility of leaching Antifoam ABlood activation due to blood/ air mixingIf emptied can introduce...
35
What is isoflurane?
 
Inhalation anesthetic, also acts as a vasodilator
36
How many temperatures are displayed on the bypass console? What are they?
 
Four:ArterialVenousCardioplegiaCore Body temp- measured in bladder or rectum
37
What does the vent line have to prevent air from travelling to the aorta or left ventricle?
 
One way valve
38
What are the thicknesses of the different tubings?
 
All are 3/32 inch in thickness
39
What is used for priming the pump?
 
Isolyte solution or another isotonic solution
40
What is the purge line? Where is it located?
 
The purge line comes out of the 3-way stopcock on top of the arterial filter. It is a safety...
