| 11. | Most commonly, femoral and radial artery puncture is performed to obtain arterial blood sampling for gas analysis.
|
| 12. | I asked the nurse who was caring for Turner to infuse calcium directly into his radial artery.
|
| 13. | The radial artery runs along the lateral aspect of the volar forearm deep to the superficial fascia.
|
| 14. | Between its two heads, the radial artery passes from the back of the hand into the palm.
|
| 15. | Vascular access complications are less common and less serious when the procedure is performed via the radial artery.
|
| 16. | The point of maximum pulsation of the radial artery can usually be palpated just proximal to the wrist.
|
| 17. | This approach passes the Flexor pollicis longus and Palmaris longus and leaves the Median nerve and Radial artery protected.
|
| 18. | People choosing this method die because of the massive blood loss from the radial artery or the ulnar artery.
|
| 19. | A hand that remains white indicates either absence or occlusion of the ulnar artery, and radial artery puncture is contraindicated.
|
| 20. | This requires an arterial blood gas determination, which involves taking a blood sample from an artery, usually the radial artery.
