Answer 15

Question 16

Changes that lead to RBC storage lesions

Answer 16

Question 17

Continuing to rise BR - on ptx

Answer 17

Question 18

Answer 18

Question 19

HyperBR, phototherapy risk factors

Answer 19

Question 20

Review thalassemias
- clinical presentation

Answer 20

Question 20

chromosome - encodes alpha globin

chromosome - encodes beta globin

Answer 20

chromosome 16

chromosome 11

Question 21

most common worldwide hemoglobinopathy

Answer 21

Hgb E - decrease PRODUCTIONof beta chains - chronic, mild hemolytic anemia; esp SE asia

21glu ->lys

can still form tetramer with alpha 2 chains

Question 22

KB test calc

Answer 22

% Hgb F = # fetal cells / # maternal cells x 100 (assumes maternal cells 500 mL)

Ask to calculate fetal blood loss by KB test -> take % hgb fetus and x 5000

Rhogam vials = mL blood / 15

Question 23

Congenital erythrocyte underproduction - Diamond Blackfan - Fanconi Anemia

Answer 23

Diamond Blackfan - AD, AR - pure RED CELL aplasia - may have increased Hgb F - Increased RBC adenosine deaminase levels - MACROcytoci anemia at 2 months, low retic,BM no erythroid precursors + TRIPHALANGEAL THUMBS, abnormal facial, maybe cardiac, renal Increase risk MDS, AML; chronic transfusions, steroid, BM tx possible Fanconi anemia - chromosomal INSTABILITY - lots of breaks - hypoplastic BONE MARROW - anemia then pancytopenia - MACROCYTOSIS, TRIPHALANGEAL thumbs, RADIAL hypoplasia, renal, ear malformations, strabismus Test chromosome with mitomycin for BREAKS; Rx ANDROGENS, GF, BM tx

Question 24

RBC membrane defect RBC biochemical defect

Answer 24

Her spherocytosis - AD, membrane instability, aplastic crisis, vaccinate ENCAPSULATED ORGANISMS, +osmotic fragility test G6PD defn - #1enzyme deficiency, XLR -> cannot make NADPH so decrease levels, worse with oxidant STRESS; HEINZ bodies; FN if not in crisis Pyruvate kinase deficiency - AR, not convert PEP to pyruvate so not generate ATP; chronic anemia;

Question 25

Question 26

Question 27

Question 28

most common solid tumor second most common

Answer 28

Teratoma - 50% SCT, malignant potential <10% neonates Neuroblastoma - adrenal, neural crest (horner HTN, flushing, dd, subcutaneous nodules), < 12 mo = better prognosis Prognosis depends on stage, age, N-myc amplification; Stage IV S - < 1 yo better prognosis (although mets) Ax NF, central hypoventilation, Hirschsprung

Question 29

Other tumors - pheochromocytoma - Wilms - hepatoblastoma - retinoblastoma -- inheritance - rhabdomyosarcoma

Answer 29

P - von hippel lindau, catecholamine W - GU, hemihypertrophy ASS - mets - good prognosis - BW, Denys Drash, WAGR, pearlman H - increased AFP, thrombocytosis R - sporadic > AD; 45% passing on if bilateral, 6% unilateral; 2nd sibling if 1st bilateral - 3%

Question 30

FFP contains... Cryo contains...

Answer 30

FFP - all factors + gamma globulins + albumin + protein factors Cryo - VIII, vWF, fibrinogen, XIII, fibronectin

Question 31

Congenital leukemia Histiocytosis

Answer 31

Langerhans - F,pancytopenia, multi organ infiltration HLH - F, pancytopenia, low fibrinogen, high ferritin/high TG, HSM, adenopathy

Question 32

BR - increase production or increase circulating BR

Answer 32

Production usually 2/2 increased RBC breakdown Increased enterohepatic circulation due to bowel obstruction, delayed enteral feeds, HD, mec ileus OTHER - cong hypothyroidism, tyrosinemia, liver failure, sepsis

Question 33

Drugs that uncouple BR from albumin

Answer 33

ceftriaxone (although confusion in Q - uncouples but also decreases unconjugated BR?)

Question 34

Drugs where hyperbilirubinemia will influence its dose
