recommended width of doorways in prep rooms
36 inches (3 feet)
ventilation, plumbing, and lights are all this type of control
engineering controls
type of pressure with the machine ON and rate of flow valve OFF
potential pressure
infant mouth closure
glue
used for blunt dissection, has an eye in the hook portion
aneurysm needle
historical injection devices
gravity injector (slow and steady percolation)
hand pump (unknown pressure)
PPE, water pressure, hygiene, recordkeeping, and exposure determination are all this type of control
work practice control
5 classifications of embalming
vascular (arterial)
cavity
hypodermic
surface
anatomical
factors that affect the embalming process from within the body
intrinsic factors
S-shaped suture needle
double-curved needle
a prep room in a rural area might have this type of aspirator
electric aspirator (bad water pressure)
OSHA regulation that deals with identifying and limiting exposure to hazardous chemicals in the workplace
Hazard Communication Standard
four steps in embalming analysis
1. observations/evaluations
2. proposed methods of treatment
3. implementation
4. observation of results
line of eye closure
inferior one-third
long instrument used for drainage
angular spring forceps
types of prep room flooring
terrazzo (slippery)
clay/ceramic tile (easy to clean but chips easily)
vinyl tile (seamless and resilient but issues with moisture and temperature)
asphalt (cheap and brittle)
epoxy (seamless)
paint (cheapest but not durable)
positioning blocks are this type of aid
manual aid
this type of embalming uses 9 or more gallons of solution and no cavity embalming
anatomical embalming
environmental conditions, vermin, and time intervals are these kinds of factors
extrinsic factors
half-curved suture needle
Loopuyt needle
factors to consider with prep room location
privacy (basement, 2nd floor)
accessibility (1st floor)
natural lighting (1st floor, 2nd floor)
plumbing (1st floor)
noise (basement)
severing tendons to improve mobility would be this type of aid
operative aid
three special conditions that affect the embalming process
infectious disease
ruptured aortic aneurysm
renal failure
shape of the curvature of the mouth and lips
horseshoe
used for hypodermic treatment. used for injection, NOT aspiration
hypovalve trocar
