| Signs of lymphedema stage 1: | 1. lymphedema disappears with bed rest and elevation. 2. soft, pitting edema 3. no or little fibrosis 4. no tissue changes 5. no Stemmer sign 6. dilated pre-lymphatic channels 7. small number of protein molecules in tissue space |
| Signs of lymphedema stage 2: | 1. edema is protein-rich 2. does not decrease with elevation 3. formation of connective and scar tissue (fibrosis) 4. pitting - non pitting (difficult to pit) 5. positive Stemmer sign 6. hardened edema (difficult to make indentation) |

| Diagnosis of lymphedema: | 1. use exclusion 2. volume assessment (3-4% increase in volume since last visit) 3. Stemmer's sign 4. Imaging (lymphoscintigraphy, MRI, CT, US) 5. Bioelectrical impedance (early stage) |
| Lipedema is a metabolic disease characterized by a significant increase in ___________ from iliac crests to the ankles. | subcutaneous fat. |
| T/F: Hyperplasia is present in lipedema. | T. |
| Swelling usually occurs in the ________ of the day because of the associated _______ edema and the diminished tissue resistance of fatty tissue. | the second half of the day associated with orthostatic edema |
| T/F: Lipedema is associated with decreased capillary ultrafiltration and vessel wall permeability. | F. (increased capillary ultrafiltration) |
| T/F: lipedema is hemorrhage free and non-painful. | F. It has frequent hemorrhage and is painful. |
