51
Q

Order of 5 colored tubes to draw

A
  1. light blue (additive is citrate for coags), 2. SST/Gold/Tiger (stimulates cell to clot and separates serum and cell), 3. Red (no additives, chemistries), 4. Green (additive is heparin, for anticoag tests and sometimes cardiac enzymes), 5. lavender/purple/pink (additive is EDTA, CBC and hematology studies)
52
Q

What is the Light Blue top additive, test, and order number?

A

1 Additive is citrate for anti-coags

53
Q

SST/Gold/Tiger additive, test, and order number?

A
  1. Stimulates cell to clot and separates serum and cell.
54
Q

What is Red Tube top additive, test, and order number?

A
  1. Red (no additives, for CBC and chemistries)
55
Q

What is Green Tube top additive, test, and order number?

A
  1. Green (heparin, for anticoag tests and sometimes cardiac enzymes)
56
Q

What is Lavender/Purple/Pink Tube top additive, test, and order number?

A
  1. Lavender/Purple/Pink (additive is EDTA, CBC and hematology studies like ESR)
57
Q

What is the difference between Serum and Plasma? (Hint: what does Plasma have that Serum doesn’t and color?)

A

Plasma=Has clotting factors, cloudy.

Serum=No clotting factors, clear.

58
Q

What is “Type and Screen”?

A

Looks at PT’s cells (Type) and serum (Screen). ABO and Rh on cell for Type. Antibody screen for antibodies in serum for Screen.

59
Q

What is Crossmatch?

A

Done outside body before transfuse. Mixing donor blood with PT’s serum to check for antibodies in recipient’s and seeing if they clot.

60
Q

Which color top for CBCs? What additive?

Q

MCV (mean corpuscular volume) determine what about the RBC and anemia?

A

Size of cell. Anemia by size.
