Question 1 -Using the examples on pages 112-113 in your textbook, create a sample fluid calculation. You may choose your own arterial index, solution strength, and volume of solution. Solve for the volume of arterial fluid (v) as shown on page 112. Be sure to show your completed formula and answer using the c X v = c’ X v’ format shown on page 112. ****Students will not be able to view other classmate responses until completing their initial discussion board post****
Question 2- As embalmers, we traditionally use the common carotid arteries, femoral arteries, and brachial/axillary arteries for most embalming procedures. Choose a vessel outside of these common arteries and explain what area of the body it would supply arterial solutions. Do you feel as a licensed embalmer you will make use of these uncommon vessel sites for arterial injection, or would you choose a different method such as surface embalming or hypodermic treatment? Explain your reasoning.
