8.00 Credits
Prerequisite: VAS 144. This course provides opportunities for the student to participate in and perform with assistance procedures performed in noninvasive vascular laboratories, radiology departments, imaging centers, and surgical departments. Continued participation by the student will progressively lead to the unassisted performance of diagnostic procedures under the supervision of an appropriately credentialed technologist. Emphasis is placed on medical therapy, surgical therapy, and other diagnostic tests performed in settings other than vascular laboratories. Topics include: equipment utilization; patient history; procedural skills and patient care; cerebrovascular procedures; therapeutic intervention; diagnostic tests for vascular diseases; carotid, arterial, venous, limited TCD, and limited abdominal duplex; and imaging and measuring abdominal organs and recognizing normal and abnormal echo patterns. 11142007

12.00 Credits
Prerequisite: VAS 245. This course provides a culminating clinical setting experience which allows students to analyze information and procedural instruction provided throughout the program. In a variety of settings, students perform all noninvasive vascular procedures independently with the supervision of an appropriately credentialed technologist. They also participate in procedures such as abdominal and visceral, extremity venous, extremity arterial, and cerebrovascular. Emphasis is placed on skill level improvement and final completion of all required clinical competencies presented in previous courses and practiced in previous clinical vascular courses. Topics include: professional conduct; infection control techniques; patient history; imaging and measuring abdominal organs and recognizing normal and abnormal echo patter; scope of practice of a vascular technologist; transporting patients; duplex, indirect, and TCD machine utilization; equipment utilization; procedural skills and patient care; and vascular procedures. 11142007

-
1.00 Credits
Prerequisite: WLD 100. Introduces the fundamental theory, safety practices, equipment, and techniques necessary to perform basic oxyacetylene welding operations. Topics include: welding theory; safety procedures and practices; proper use of gas cylinders, regulators, torches, tips, and other oxyacetylene welding apparatus; welding without filler rods; running beads with filler rods; joint design and making butt, lap, and open butt joints; and brazing and soldering. Practice in the laboratory is provided.
-
3.00 Credits
Prerequisite: MAT 1012. Introduces the knowledge and skills necessary for reading welding and related blueprints and sketches. Topics include: basic lines; sketching; basic and sectional views; dimensions, notes, and specifications; isometrics; and detail and assembly of prints.
-
6.00 Credits
Prerequisite: WLD 100. Introduces the fundamental theory, safety practices, equipment, and techniques required for shielded metal arc welding (SMAW) in the flat position. Qualification tests, flat position, are used in the evaluation of student progress toward making industrial standard welds. Topics include: SMAW safety and health practices, fundamental SMAW theory, basic electrical principles, SMAW machines and set up, electrode identification and selection, materials selection and preparation, and production of beads and joints in the flat position.
-
6.00 Credits
Prerequisite: WLD 104. Introduces the major theory, safety practices, and techniques required for shielded metal arc welding (SMAW) in the horizontal position. Qualification tests, horizontal position, are used in the evaluation of student progress toward making industrial standard welds. Topics include: horizontal SMAW safety and health practices, selection and applications of electrodes, selection and applications for horizontal SMAW, horizontal SMAW joints, and horizontal SMAW to specification.
-
6.00 Credits
Prerequisite: WLD 104. Introduces the major theory, safety practices, and techniques required for shielded metal arc welding (SMAW) in the vertical position. Qualification tests, vertical position, are used in the evaluation of student progress toward making industrial standard welds. Topics include: vertical SMAW safety and health practices, selection and applications of electrodes for vertical SMAW, vertical SMAW joints, and vertical SMAW to specification.
-
6.00 Credits
Prerequisite: WLD 104. Introduces the major theory, safety practices, and techniques required for shielded metal arc welding (SMAW) in the overhead position.
