Study These Flashcards

A

What are platelet function tests?

What is a thromboelastogram (TEG) and what does it tell you?

Method of testing blood coagulation efficiency

Normal

Coagulopathy/anticoagulants Long R time

Reduced platelet function Low MA

Primary fibrinolysis High LY30

Hypercoagulable Short R time, High MA

DIC - Stage 1 Hypercoagulable state with secondary fibrinolysis

DIC - Stage 2 Hypocoagulable state

What is DIC?

Disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) is a condition in which blood clots form throughout the body, blocking small blood vessels.

Name some causes of DIC?

What are the two main labs that are completed for blood compatibility?

How to read blood type results?

What is the incidence of reaction after type and screen? How long does it usually take?

What is the incidence of reaction after type and crossmatch?

What are the three phases of type and crossmatch?

What are estimated blood volumes (EBV) for neonates and adults?

How do you calculate allowable blood loss (ABL)?

Centrifuged yield of PRBC?

Centrifuged yield of the supernatant (platelets)?

What is added to whole blood after donation?

What is added to PRBC, and risks associated?

How much does 1 unit of blood (PRBC) increase hematocrit/hemoglobin?

What does stored blood do to the oxyhemoglobin curve?
