This is not characteristic of erythrocytes? stickiness, plug, and hemostasis (platelets)
What is released in response to low plasma levels of oxygen? erythropoietin
What is not true of of iron? binds irreversibly to oxygen
This causes cyanosis hypoxemia
What is the normal blood pH? 7.35 to 7.45
The anemia of chronic kidney disease is due to? a deficiency of erythropoietin
A deficiency of intrinsic factor decreases the absorption of vitamin B12 by the digestive tract
Sickle Cell Anemia is most likely to be characterized by what? severe pain, organ damage and hemolysis.
A person who has experienced undetected slow bleeding lesion in the stomach, what is he most likely to have? Iron Deficiency Anemia
This would least likely describe leukocytes? activates prothrombin
Neutrophils and monocytes engage in phgocytosis
A person who is chronically hypoxic (as in lung disease) is most likely to ? develop a secondary polycythemia
The terms microcytic and hypochromic are descriptive of? anemia
Rapid hemolysis causes? hyperbilirbinemia and jaundice
What condition is most likely to elevate the hematocrit? dehydration
The administration of warfarin/Coumadin inhibits the hepatic synthesis of prothrombin
Hypoprothrombinemia inhibits coagulation
A person taking Coumadin should avoid intake of spinach and broccoli because? contains lots of vitamin K, the antidote to coumadin therapy.
Activation plasminogen dissolves blood clots
Which characteristic of aspirin causes bleeding? antiplatelet
What is essential to fibrinolytic system? activation of plasminogen
Thrombocytopenia causes petechiae and bleeding
What is not part of vitamin K's function Does not require for intrinsic factor for its absorption of by the digestive tract

What is the primary long term concern regarding kernicterus? brain damage
A newborn is jaundiced, he will be monitored for? blood levels of bilirubin
If type O (+) is given a transfusion with type A (-) blood, what is likely to happen? hemolytic reaction since the recipient blood contains anti-A antibodies
What mother-baby blood relationships are of concern? mom is AB(-) and baby is B(+)
If mistakenly given a unit of incompatible blood, what is the outcome for patient? hemolysis - break down of erythrocytes.
