blood typing
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| all blood cells are formed in the bone marrow through a process called | hematopoesis |
| most common blood type | type O |
| least common blood type | type AB |
| referred to as the universal donor | type O |
| referred to as the universal recipient | type AB |
| this indicates if a specific antigen is present on their RBC's which can induce cell destruction when exposed to incompatible blood types | Rh factor |
| the blood system is an | antibody/antigen system |
| what is on the surface of blood cells that signal what they are [like a name tag] | antigens |
| in the plasma there are-------- that seek out an opposing blood cell | antibodies |
| the human body holds about how many liters of blood | 4-5 liters [men may have up to 6 liters due to larger body size] |
| the cellular portion contains | RBC,WBC, and platelets |
| refers to the acidity of a substance | pH |
| what is the normal blood pH | 7.35 to 7.45 |
| the body regulates the pH through a process called | buffering |
| what is the acid that is excreted from the cells as a waste product | carbon dioxide |
| if carbon dioxide is not exhaled,those molecules stay on the RBC's which causes the RBC's unable to pick up oxygen. this condition is called | hypoxia[decrease in oxygen in the blood] |
| hypoxia lowers the pH of the blood making it more | acidic |
| we can measure the acid levels in the blood through a test called | ABG[Arterial Blood Gas] |
| what can the ABG test tell us a lot about | the respiratory and metabolic health of the patient |
| who performs the ABG test | Respiratory Therapists |
| if you have blood cells with "A" on their name tag, then in the plasma the antibodies would be | anti "B" |
| what would happen if you but "B" blood into a person with "A" blood | anti "B" antibodies would see the foreign invaders and attack them,clumping the cells up and forming clots |
| neutral parties have both "A" and "B" antigens which means what | they have no antibodies [they are not"anti"anything] |
| what type of blood is considered "Neutral Party" meaning they don't want to fight | type AB |
| "invisible cells" don't have any antigens on the surface of their cells, and since they have no"Name Tag" the cells are left alone when put into another body. what blood type is this | Type O |
| about 85% of the population has another antigen on their blood cell this is called | The Rh factor |
| people with the Rh Antigen on their RBC's are called | Rh positive |
| the liquid portion of blood is called | plasma |
| plasma transports | all other cells,hormones, proteins, fats,electrolytes and fibrinogin |
