B-500 GROUP HUG!!!! (Do you remember that from last year???) QUESTION: Describe why fluid from blood leaks out of a capillary at the arteriole end and much of this fluid is reabsorbed at the venule end. ANSWER: At the arteriole end the blood pressure on the inside of capillary is greater than the osmotic pressure on the outside of the capillary so fluid is forced out of the capillary through small gaps and fenstrations. At the venule end of the capillary the the osmotic pressure on the outside is greater than the blood pressure on the inside so fluid is forced back into the capillary.

C-100 QUESTION: What are the two most common pressure points used to check a person’s pulse? Answer: Radial and Carotid

FINAL JEOPARDY Topic – Blood Pressure Question: List the 6 major steps in taking a person’s blood pressure. Be descriptive. Answer: 1) Place the blood pressure cuff around the person’s arm above the elbow (Biceps area) 2) Close the valve and pump up the cuff to about 180 mm hg of pressure so that the person’s blood flow is cut off. 3) Place the stethoscope on the brachial artery just above the elbow joint. 4) Slowly open the valve and let the air out while watching the needle. 5) Remember the number when you hear the first noise (systolic) and remember the number when the noise stops (diastolic). 6) Write the systolic over the diastolic
