White/Pale Gums (hematopoietic system) sign of shock, low red blood cells
Blue/Cyanotic Gums (hematopoietic system) sign of low oxygen (hypoxia)
Yellow/Icteric Gums (hematopoietic system) sign of liver/kidney problems, desctruction of red blood cells
Function of Red Blood Cells (hematopoietic system) transports oxygen to tissues of the body
Hemoglobin (hematopoietic system) protein that helps transfer oxygen & removes CO2 from tissues
Function of White Blood Cells (hematopoietic system) helps fight off disease/infection
Granular WBCs (hematopoietic system) neutrophils, basophils, eosinophil
Agranular WBCs (hematopoietic system) monocytes, lymphocytes
Platelet Purpose (hematopoietic system) important for clot formation
Purple Top (hematopoietic system) contains anticoagulant, for CBC
SST (hematopoietic systems) no anticoagulant, for chemistries
Lymphatic System is composed of... (lymphatic system) tonsils, spleen, thymus, glands/nodes, vessels, cells that provide immunity
Lymph Nodes/Vessels Flow (lymphatic system) relies on muscle movement, unidirectional valves, passive flow
Lymph Nodes (lymphatic system) submandibular, prescapular, popliteal, axillary, inguinal
Signs of Inflammation (lymphatic system) eryhthema, heat, edema, algesia, decreased use & guarding of the injured area
Antigen (lymphatic system) causes immune response to fight off
Modified Live Vaccine Pros (lymphatic system) immediate, high & long protection.
Modified Live Vaccine Cons (lymphatic system) potential for vaccine induced disease, can't use for pregnant animals
Killed Vaccine Pros (lymphatic system) very safe, good protection
Killed Vaccine Cons (lymphatic system) shorter duration of protection, must be boostered
Core Vaccines (lymphatic system) rabies, distemper, hepatitis (adenovirus), parvovirus
Rabies (lymphatic system) affects central nervous system, passed through saliva, fatal, zoonotic
Distemper (lymphatic system) attacks multiple body systems, often fatal, passed airborne/direct contact
