RHS1 Flashcards
(201 cards)
acute vs chornic CO toxicity
acute: bright red
chronic: hypoxic CNS lesions, basal gangia lesions, globus pallidus necrosis
Colorless, Odorless, nonirritating gas.
Carbon Monoxide
-higher affinity for hemogloibibn(turns to carboxyhemoglobbin)
Attaches to and inactivates metalloenzymes
cyanide
-will inhibit cell respiration
Principal toxicity due to inactivation of cytochrome C oxidase
cyanide
acute vs chronic cyanide toxicity
acute effects largest O2 organ demads: brain and heart
chronic: weakness and visual distrubances
binds to the sulfhydryl groups
lead
inhibition of delta-aminolevulinic acid dehydratase and ferrochelatase.
lead
-impares heme synthesis, Zinc-protoporphyrin (ZPP) is formed instead of heme, causing dec IRON
inhibits sodium- and potassium-dependent ATPases in cell membranes
lead
-will make the RBC more fragile and more suceptible to lyse
Competes with calcium for binding to phosphates in bone
lead
-radiodense deposits on bone
burton line
lead deposits on gingiva
Zinc-protoporphyrin (ZPP)
formed when led is in the body and will inhibit iron
vascular sclerosis and stromal fibrosis
ionizing radiation
heat cramps vs heat exhaustion vs heat stroke
heat cramps: loss of electrolytes. normal core temp maintained, cramping of muscles
heat exhaustion: heart nor able to compensate for hypovolemia from excessive sweating. core temp in within safe range and will be brief until water is replenished
heat stroke: failure of thermoreg mechanisms. core body temp above 104. general vasodialation and **sustained muscle contraction from RYR1 dysfunction
what are respiratoyr tract defense enzymes
lysozyme and lactoferrin
what innate defense is used for virus, bacteria, parasite, fungus
virus: lymphocytes and NK
bacteria: macrophages and PMN(neutrophils)
fungi and parasites: mast and eosinophils
MCHC
words for high and low MCHC
-who has a high MCHC, low?
concentration of Hb in a given volume of RBC
hyper and hypochromic
HIGH: HS, SCD
LOW: Iron def(drastic), thalasemia (slight)
gives an idea about how similar or different the RBCs are in size
-word for high variation
Red cell distribution width (RDW)
-anisocytosis (high RDW)
ovalocyte
B12 and Folate Dec (macrocytic)
thassalemia has what shape RBC
target
tear drop
what shape for myelofibrosis, metastatic marrow, megaloblastic anemia
what shpae immune heamolitic anemia, post spleenectomy, HS, severe burns
sphereocyte
what shape microangipathic and mechanical hemolytic anemia
name the dzs
schistocyte
-TTP(neurologic- VWF multimers), ITP(antibodies Gp 2b 3a, factor 4), HUS(Ecoli), DIC
what kind of anemia is having no space in the bone marrow
hypoprolioferative
hemolytic anemia definition
shortened lifespan of RBC and compensatory INC IN EPO, INC IN bilirubin, INC LDH, DEC haptoglobin
