Q

Erythroblastosis fetalis

A

Fetal= baby rh+ and the mother is rh-
no rhogam shot

1st encounter for mother with rh+ blood nothing happens to the baby
the mother starts building antibodies against the rh factor

2nd pregnancy mothers antibodies will attack fetus which is why the rhogam shot is needed

Q

Differences between each of the leukocytes

A

There are two types of leukocytes granulocytes and agranulocytes

Granulocytes have granules in their cytoplasm while agranulocytes do not

Q

Lifecycle of RBC

A

Life span: 120 days
Hemoglobin to globin to amino acids to recycled

Hem to iron to ferritin or hemosiderin to bilirubin to small intestine to bowel movements

hemosiderin to blood

everything else will be consumed by macrophages

17
Q

Hemophilia

A

Deficient clotting factors which is genetic

18
Q

Sickle cell

A

Sickle cell anemia is an inherited disorder that affects the body’s red blood cells it’s caused by a mutation in the beta-globin chain of the hemoglobin molecule. (c shaped)

19
Q

Hemolytic

A

Red blood cells are going to burst
thalassemia and sickle cells

20
Q

Hemorrhagic

A

Severe blood loss

21
Q

Pernicious

A

Deficiency of B12

22
Q

Correct order of hemostasis

A
  1. Vascular spasm
  2. Platelet plug formation
  3. Coagulation
  4. Clot retraction
  5. Fibrinolysis

D. 3,5,1,4,2

23
Q

What role do kidneys play in RBC production

A

The kidneys play a role in red blood cell (RBC) production by producing the hormone erythropoietin (EPO) EPO stimulates the bone marrow to produce red blood cells that carry oxygen throughout the body

24
Q

Know the intrinsic and extrinsic pathways
What initiates them
What their goal is
Which one is faster
What each pathway uses

A

What initiates them: The intrinsic pathway is triggered by internal damage to the vessel wall while the extrinsic pathway is triggered by external trauma

What their goal is: The intrinsic and extrinsic pathways are two separate pathways that interact to form the clotting cascade

Which one is faster: The extrinsic pathway is faster

What each pathway uses: The intrinsic pathway is activated by factors in the blood while the extrinsic pathway is activated by tissue factor

25
What does serotonin ADP and thromboxane have to do with blood
APD: Stimulate platelet aggregation Serotonin and Thromboxane: Both enhance vascular spasm and platelet aggregation
26
How does aspirin effect our blood
Inhibits thromboxane can make you bleed more easily
27
What are the different blood types
Phenotype: A, B, AB, O, and Rh + or - AB= IA+IB A= IA + IA or IA + i B= IB + IB or IB + i O= i+i
28
How do we determine what blood type someone is
Blood types are determined by the antigens on the surface of red blood cells
29
How do we get our blood types
Parents alleles genes
30
What are the different alleles
There are four types of alleles dominant, recessive, codominant, and incomplete dominant
31
What do the different alleles make up with our blood types
The A allele codes for an enzyme that makes the A antigen and the B allele codes for an enzyme that makes the B antigen a third version of this gene the O allele codes for a protein that is not functional it makes no surface molecules at all
32
What is a lymph and what does it do
Lymph is tissue fluid we make 3 liters It returns clean fluid to circulation
33
Differences between efferent lymphatics vs afferent lymphatics
Structure: Afferent vessels are thin-walled tubes made of smooth muscle cells, while efferent vessels are thick walled tubes with valves at both ends Function: Afferent vessels carry unfiltered lymph fluid from blood vessels to lymph nodes while efferent vessels carry filtered lymph fluid from lymph nodes to the blood Location: Afferent vessels flow into lymph nodes while efferent vessels flow out of lymph nodes
34
Hematocrit
percent of red blood cell in total blood volume male: 45% to 52% = 47% female: 37% to 48% = 42%
35
Most to least amount Never Let Monkeys Eat Bananas
Neutrophil: Lymphocytes: Monocyte: Eosinophil: Basophil:
36
Know the structure of the lymph node
Bean shaped 2.5 cm Surrounded by a fibrous capsule Extensions of capsule trabeculae Cortex contains follicles Germinal centers dividing B cells Deeper cortex T cells intransit Medulla both B and T cells
37
Function of the spleen thymus
Largest lymphoid organ site for lymphocyte proliferation and immune surveillance filters the blood macrophages
38
Natural killer cells and cytotoxic T cells
Perform: apoptosis and kill virus and cancer Different: natural killer cells non specific Cytotoxic T cells are Specific
39
Know the differences between B and T cells
B type of immune response: humoral Antibody secretion: yes Primary targets: extracellular pathogens Site of origin: Red bone marrow Site of maturation: Red bone marrow Effector cells: plasma cells Memory cell formation: yes T type of immune response: cellular Antibody secretion: no Primary targets: Intracellular pathogens Site of origin: Red bone marrow Site of maturation: thymus Effector cells: cytotoxic Memory cell formation: yes What activates them B: antigens bond with antibodies on surface of B cells T: APC helper T and B cells what do they have in common? Red bone marrow and yes to memory cell formation
