EMBALMING II Questions with Correct answersINJECTION & DRAINAGE TECHNIQUES Correct Answer-During
the embalming of the body, four processes take place at the same time.
They are:
1. Injection (also referred to as Delivery in Chapter 13)
2. Distribution
3. Diffusion
4. Drainage
WORK & ENGINEERING CONTROLS Correct Answer-Adequate
ventilation system
Prevent chemical spills
Keep embalming machine in good repair
Rinse fluid bottles
Cap all chemical bottles
Keep a lid on the embalming machine
Clamp all leaky vessels during embalming
Restrict drainage
Use closed drainage
Cover the sink to avoid splashing
Keep a water hose on the table to flush away drainage
Avoid high water pressure
,5 FACTORS DETERMINED IN EMBALMING PROCESS Correct
Answer-1. Vessels for injection and drainage
2. Strength of the embalming solution
3. Volume of the embalming solution
4. Injection pressure
5. Injection rate of flow
INJECTION TECHNIQUES -
TYPES OF INJECTION Correct Answer-One-point; injection and
drainage from one site.
Split injection/drainage; injection from one site and drainage from
another
Multi-point; injection at two or more sites.
Restricted Cervical; injection of both common carotid arteries.
Six-point injection; injection of the right and left common carotid,
axillary, and femoral arteries. In an autopsy case the subclavian or
brachial arteries can be used for the arms; and the common (internal) or
external iliac arteries can be used for the legs.
MULTI POINT INJECTION Correct Answer-Injection at two or more
sites.
This may be used in the following
cases:
1. When a body area does not receive or needs more arterial solution
2. Bodies dead for a long time
,3. Signs of decomposition are evident
4. Death by ruptures aortic aneurysm (the fluid will simply fill the cavity
instead of going through the arterial system)
5. Highly contagious diseases
6. Delayed viewing or disposition
7. Military or shipping requirements
8. Purge develops and/or drainage stops
9. Generalized edema
10. Difficulty firming
11. Poor peripheral circulation
12. True tissue gas
13. Autopsied
14. Organ and/or tissue donation
RESTRICTED CERVICAL Correct Answer-Injection of both common
carotid arteries.
This may be used in the following cases:
1. Facial trauma
2. Facial distension is anticipated
3. Eye enucleation
4. Generalized edema
5. Difficulty firming
6. Distribution Problems
, 7. High HCHO demand
8. Purge is anticipated
9. Jaundice is present
HOW TO PICK AN ARTERY Correct Answer-1. Size
2. Can I use the accompanying vein for drainage
3. Depth of location
4. Flexibility
5. Effects on Posing the body
6. Potential leakage consideration
7. Proximity of the vessel to the arch of the aorta
HOW TO PICK A VEIN Correct Answer-1. Size
2. Proximity to the right atrium of the heart
3. Blood discolorations of the face and neck
4. Flexibility
5. Depth
EMBALMING - ADDITIONAL POINTS TO REMEMBER Correct
Answer-Fluids follow the path of least resistance
Embalming in which only the skin and superficial portions of the body
receive solutions is referred to as shell embalming.
Coagula in the arterial system can easily be pushed into minute arterial
tributaries; this is what allows drainage to occur.
