Impedance phlebography may be done in order to: detect blood clots lodged in the deep veins of the leg, screen patients who are likely to have blood clots in the leg, detect the source of blood clots in the lungs.

What is the purpose of having a low impedance for transmission lines?

in order to reduce the transmission line losses we need low impedance...Low impedance also improves power transfer capacity of the line..


What is impedance coupled amplifier?

The purpose of impedance matching is to provide for the highest efficiency between either the stages of an amplifier circuit or from a device to the amplifier for the same purpose. Impedance matching us used to make the circuits compatible based on electrical characteristics of a particular circuit from one section (or stage) to the next.


What is the purpose of 50 ohms antenna?

A; it is to match the cable line impedance to the receiver for maximum transfer of energy


Which is better high input impedance or low input impedance and why?

That depends on the output impedance. In electronic we use voltage bridging, that is a relative low output impedance to a higher input impedance. Usualy the input impedance is more than ten times higher then the output impedance. An input impedance is called also a load impedance or an external impedance. An output impedance is called also a source impedance or an internal impedance.


The purpose of transformer percentage impedance?

Inherently, the actual impedance seen at the secondary voltage will be different than that seen at the primary voltage. To make things easy, we use symmetrical components, where transformers are reduced to a p.u. (per unit) impedance. 100 x p.u. is equivalent to the percentage impedance you are referring to. When converted to per unit, a transformer has one impedance, not two, so it does not matter whether you are looking through the transformer from the secondary or the primary.

What risks exist for the patient in undergoing an impedance phlebography?

Impedance phlebography is painless and safe. It presents no risk to the patient.


What is impedance phlebography?

Impedance phlebography is a noninvasive test that uses electrical monitoring to measure blood flow in veins of the leg.


What care should a patient receive after an impedance phlebography?

The patient may resume normal or postoperative activities after the test.


What are some other names for phlebography?

also called venography, ascending contrast phlebography, or contrast phlebography


What precautions need to be taken when using impedance phlebography?

Because this test is not invasive, it can be done on all patients. However, the accuracy of the results will be affected if the patient does not breathe normally or keep the leg muscles relaxed. Compression of the veins because of.


What characteristics does a normal impedance phlebography have?

Normally, inflating the pressure cuff will cause a sharp rise in the pressure in the veins of the calf because blood flow is blocked. When the cuff is released, the pressure decreases rapidly as the blood flows away.


What characteristics does an abnormal impedance phlebography have?

If a clot is present, the pressure in the calf veins will already be high. It does not become sharply higher when the pressure cuff is tightened. When the pressure cuff is deflated, the clot blocks the flow of blood out of the calf vein.


What is a normal result for a phlebography test?

Normal phlebography results show proper blood flow through the leg veins.


What is another name for venography?

Venography (also called phlebography, ascending contrast phlebography, or contrast venography) is an invasive diagnostic test


How should patients be prepared for an impedance phlebography?

Patients undergoing this test do not need to alter their diet, change their normal activities, or stop taking any medications. They will wear a surgical gown during the test, and be asked to urinate before the test starts.
