WHAT DETERMINES WHETHER BLOOD IS BRIGHT RED OR DULL BRICK RED?

Ok, so you’re using my notecards which is great. I am glad I could help you out cause I wish I had someone to help me out when I took this course. I know Anatomy is super hard.

I only ask that if you find these notecards helpful, you join Easy Notecards and create at least one notecard set to help others out. It can be for any subject or class. Thanks and don’t forget to rate my helpfulness!

23

WHAT IS THE AVERAGE LIFE SPAN OF A RED BLOOD CELL? HOW DOES ITS ANUCLEATE CONDITION AFFECT THIS LIFE SPAN?

DURATION OF DEVELOPMENT ABOUT 15 DAYS; LIFE SPAN 100 - 120 DAYS. BECAUSE ITS ANUCLEATE THEY ARE UNABLE TO REPRODUCE OR REPAIR DAMAGE CAUSED TO IT DURING CIRCULATION.

33

BROADLY SPEAKING WHY ARE HEMATOLOGIC STUDIES OF BLOOD SO IMPORTANT IN THE DIAGNOSIS OF DISEASE?

THE HEMATOLOGIC IS IMPORTANT IN DIAGNOSING DISEASES BECAUSE BLOOD COMPOSITION REFLECTS THE HEALTH STATUS OF MANY BODY FUNCTIONS.

34

RECORD NORMAL VALUES FOR HEALTHY MALE ADULTS AND INDICATE THE SIGNIFICANCE OF HIGH OR LOW VALUES FOR EACH TEST.
TEST 1: TOTAL WBC COUNT

NORMAL VALUES:5,000 - 10,000/ UL OF BLOOD
HIGH VALUES: LEUKOCYTOSIS
LOW VALUES: LEUKOPENIA

35

RECORD NORMAL VALUES FOR HEALTHY MALE ADULTS AND INDICATE THE SIGNIFICANCE OF HIGH OR LOW VALUES FOR EACH TEST.

HIGH VALUES: ERYTHROCYTOSIS
LOW VALUES: ANEMIA

36

RECORD NORMAL VALUES FOR HEALTHY MALE ADULTS AND INDICATE THE SIGNIFICANCE OF HIGH OR LOW VALUES FOR EACH TEST.

NORMAL VALUES: 2 - 6 MINUTES
HIGH VALUES: CLOTTING DECREASED
LOW VALUES: CLOTTING INCREASED

40

WHY IS A DIFFERENTIAL WBC COUNT MORE VALUEABLE THAN A TOTAL WBC COUNT WHEN TRYING TO PIN DOWN THE SPECIFIC SOURCE OF PATHOLOGY?

A DIFFERENTIAL WBC COUNT IS MORE VALUEABLE BECAUSE ANY ABNORMAL COUNT (INCREASE/DECREASE) OF ANY OF THE WBC'S CAN INDICATE A PROBLEM OR THE SOURCE OF PATHOLOGY.
EX. INCREASED NEUTROPHIL COULD MEAN BACTERIAL INFECTION

41

WHAT NAME IS GIVEN TO THE PROCESS OF RBC PRODUCTION?

ERYTHROPOIESIS

42

WHAT HORMONE ACTS AS A STIMULUS FOR ERYTHROPOIESIS?

GLYCOPROTEIN (ERYTHROPOIETIN)

43

WHY MIGHT PATIENTS WITH KIDNEY DISEASE SUFFER FROM ANEMIA? HOW CAN SUCH PATIENTS BE TREATED?

BECAUSE ITS THE KIDNEYS THAT RELEASE ERYTHROPOITIN TO STIMULATE BONE MARROW TO MAKE MORE RBCs. IF THE KIDNEYS WERE NOT FUNCTIONING RIGHT RBCs WILL BE REDUCED CAUSING ANEMIA.
TREATMENT: EPO & IRON SUPPLEMENTS

44

DISCUSS THE EFFECT OF THE FOLLOWING FACTORS ON RBC COUNT.

LONG-TERM EFFECT OF ATHLETIC TRAINING (FOR EXAMPLE, RUNNING 4 TO 5 MILES PER DAY OVER A PERIOD OF SIX TO NINE MONTHS)

A ENDURANCE TRAINING ENLARGES YOUR BLOOD VOLUME RESULTING IN A LOWER RBC PER UNIT. THIS IS KNOWN AS SPORTS ANEMIA.

45

DISCUSS THE EFFECT OF THE FOLLOWING FACTORS ON RBC COUNT.

A PERMANENT MOVE FROM SEA LEVEL TO A HIGH ALTITUDE AREA

ANY PROLONGED PERIOD OF OXYGEN DEPRIVATION RESULTS IN INCREASED RED BLOOD CELL PRODUCTION. SINCE THERE IS LESS OXYGEN THE HIGHER YOU ARE ABOVE SEA LEVEL, YOUR RBC COUNT WOULD INCREASE.

46

DEFINE HEMATOCRIT

PACKED CELL VOLUME (PCV)% OCCUPIED BY ERYTHROCYTES.

47

IF YOU HAD A HIGH HEMATOCRIT, WOULD YOU EXPECT YOUR HEMOGLOBIN DETERMINATION TO BE HIGH OR LOW? WHY?

HIGH; THE MORE ERYTHROCYTES YOU HAVE MEANS YOU WILL HAVE MORE HEMOGLOBIN NEEDED FOR OXYGEN BONDING.

48

WHAT IS AN ANTICOAGULANT?

AGENT THAT PREVENTS COAGULATION

49

NAME TWO ANTICOAGULANTS USED IN CONDUCTING THE HEMATOLOGIC TESTS.

HEPARIN AND ETHYLENEDIAMINETRAACETIC ACID (EDTA); CAN ALSO USE SODIUM CITRATE.

50

WHAT IS THE BODYS NATURAL ANTICOAGULANT?

THERE IS MORE THEN ONE, BUT HEPARIN IS THE ONE MOST HEARD OF. OTHER 2 ARE ANTI THROMBIN AND PROSTACYCLIN.

51

IF YOUR BLOOD CLUMPED WITH BOTH ANTI-A AND ANTI-B SERA, YOUR ABO BLOOD TYPE WOULD BE?

AB BLOOD TYPE

52

IF YOU WERE AB BLOOD TYPE:
TO WHAT ABO BLOOD GROUPS COULD YOU GIVE BLOOD?

AB BLOOD TYPE

53

IF YOU WERE AB BLOOD TYPE:
FROM WHICH ABO DONOR TYPES COULD YOU RECEIVE BLOOD?

ALL DONOR TYPES

54

WHICH ABO BLOOD TYPE IS MOST COMMON?

O BLOOD TYPE

55

WHICH ABO BLOOD TYPE IS THE LEAST COMMON?

AB BLOOD TYPE

56

WHAT BLOOD TYPE IS THEORETICALLY CONSIDERED THE UNIVERSAL DONOR? WHY?

TYPE O BLOOD; BECAUSE THEY CAN USUALLY GIVE BLOOD TO THE OTHER ABO BLOOD TYPES WITHOUT CAUSING AN ABO TRANSFUSION REACTION.

57

ASSUME THE BLOOD OF TWO PATIENTS HAS BEEN TYPED FOR ABO BLOOD TYPE. ON THE BASIS OF THESE RESULTS, MR. ADAMS HAS TYPE _1_ BLOOD, AND MR. CALHOON HAS TYPE _2_ BLOOD.

1. O
2. A

58

EXPLAIN WHY AN RH-NEGATIVE PERSON DOES NOT HAVE A TRANSFUSION REACTION ON THE FIRST EXPOSURE TO RH-POSITIVE BLOOD BUT DOES HAVE A REACTION ON THE SECOND EXPOSURE.

RH ANTIGENS OF DONOR SENSITIZES THE RECIPIENT ON THE FIRST TIME, THE SECOND TIME IT DOES NOT SENSITIZE AND A REACTION WILL OCCUR.

59

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN AN ABO BLOOD TYPE IS MISMATCHED FOR THE FIRST TIME?

ANTIBODIES BIND TOGETHER CAUSING BLOOD TO CLUMP UP, AND THE BLOOD WILL NOT WORK PROPERLY.

60

RECORD YOUR OBSERVATIONS OF THE FIVE DEMONSTRATION SLIDES VIEWED.

A. MACROCYTIC HYPOCHROMIC ANEMIA

THE RED BLOOD CELL WOULD APPEAR LARGER THEN NORMAL (E.G. FROM VITAMIN B-12 DEFICIENCY) AND PALER THAN NORMAL (NOT AS RED APPEARING)

61

RECORD YOUR OBSERVATIONS OF THE FIVE DEMONSTRATION SLIDES VIEWED.

B. MICROCYTIC HYPOCHROMIC ANEMIA

VERY MUCH SMALLER THAN THE AVERAGE RED BLOOD CELL AND PINK IN COLOR DUE TO LOW HEMOGLOBIN IN THE BODY

62

RECORD YOUR OBSERVATIONS OF THE FIVE DEMONSTRATION SLIDES VIEWED.

C. SICKLE CELL ANEMIA

SICKLE CELL LOOK LIKE DEFORMED RED BLOOD CELLS WHEN DIAGNOSED WITH SICKLE CELL, THEY LOOK THEIR SHAPE AND FORM INTO A C-SHAPED CELL

63

RECORD YOUR OBSERVATIONS OF THE FIVE DEMONSTRATION SLIDES VIEWED.

D. LYMPHOCYTIC LEUKEMIA (CHRONIC)

CELLS ARE ALOT LARGER, HAVE A MEMBRANE THAT IS VERY LARGE AND MISSHAPED

64

70

PROVIDE THE NORMAL, OR AT LEAST "DESIREABLE," RANGE FOR PLASMA CHOLESTEROL CONCENTRATION

130 - 200 MG/100 ML

71

DESCRIBE THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN HIGH BLOOD CHOLESTEROL LEVELS AND CARDIOVASCULAR DISEASE SUCH AS HYPERTENSION, HEART ATTACKS, AND STROKES.

CHOLESTEROL IS A MAJOR COMPONENT OF SMOOTH MUSCLE PLAQUES FORMED DURING ATHEROSCLEROSIS. ATHEROCLEROSIS IS A DISEASE PROCESS IN WHICH THE BODY'S BLOOD VESSELS BECOME INCREASINGLY OCCLUDED BY PLAQUES. PLAQUES NARROW ARTERIES, AND CONTRIBUTE TO HYPERTENSION. THEY ALSO HELP IN THE FORMATION OF BLOOD CLOTS THAT BREAK AWAY AND BLOCK SMALLER VESSELS IN CULATORY PATHWAY AND CAUSES HEART ATTACKS OR STROKES
