Modified Ulnar test
Brachial Pinpoint test
Modified Brachial test
Modified Alexander test
Pulmonary Artery Catheters are also referred to as Swan Ganz
True
False
Common sites for Central Lines include (select all that apply)
Internal Jugular vein
Subclavian vein
Radial artery
Femoral vein
Carotid artery
Central Lines typically terminate in the: (select all)
Superior Vena Cava
Inferior Vena Cava

"Normal" pH values in an ABG are 7.35-7.45
True
False
"Normal" Bicarbonate values in an ABG are:
22-26mEq/L
35-45mEq/L
20-26mEq/L
22-35mEq/L
"Normal" PaCO2 values in an ABG are:
22-26mmHg
35-45mmHg
22-35mmHg
4.7-6.0mmHg
These factors will cause a "right shift" in the oxygen-hemoglobin dissociation curve: (select all)
High pH
Low pH
High body temp
Low body temp
A right shift in the oxygen-hemoglobin dissociation curve results in a dissociation of oxygen from hemoglobin into the tissues
True
False

A pulmonary artery catheter, when in the superior vena cava/right atrium, would likely read:
0-6mmHg
6-25mmHg
35-45mmHg
12-18mmHg
