        Help!  

Question
Answer
Red marrow found where?   Flat and irregular bones – ends of long bones, pelvic, vertebrae, sacrum, sternum, cranial, scapulae  
🗑
All 3 types of blood cells come from   matopoieitic stem cell within bone marrow  
🗑
Serum refers to   plasma minus clotting factors  
🗑
Plasma proteins   albumin, globulin, clotting factors, fibrinogen  
🗑
Globin   simple protein  
🗑
Heme   iron compound  
🗑
Carbon dioxide bind to?   the globin portion of hemoglobin  
🗑
Erythropoiesis   process of RBC production – regulated by cellular o2 requirements and general metabolic activity.  
🗑
Essential nutrients for erythropoiesis   protein, iron, folate (folic acid), cobalamin (B12), riboflavin (B2), and pyridoxine (B6).  
🗑
Reticulocyte   immature erythrocyte  
🗑
Reticulocyte count measures?   rate at which new RBCs appear in circ  
🗑
Reticulocytes develop into mature RBCs in what time frame?   48 hours of release into circ  
🗑
Hemolysis   destruction of RBCs  
🗑
What performs hemolysis in body?   monocytes and macrophages that remove abnormal, defective, damaged, and old RBCs from circ  
🗑
Where does hemolysis usually occur?   in bone marrow, liver, and spleen  
🗑
Hemolysis of RBCs results in?   increased bilirubin in body  
🗑
Primary function of granulocytes is   phagocytosis  
🗑
Most common type of granulocyte   neutrophil 50 – 70 percent  
🗑
Neutrophils primary phagocytic cells involved in   acute inflammatory responses  
🗑
Mature neutrophils is called a   segmented neutrophils or “seg” or “polysegmented neutrophils” – cuz nucleus is segmented into 2 – 5 lobes  
🗑
One of primary functions of eosinophils is to   engulf antigen-antibody complexes during allergic response  
🗑
Basophils   less that 2%, cytoplasmic granules that contain heparin, serotonin, and histamine – allergic and inflammatory rxns  
🗑
Lymphocytes   20 – 40%, immune response, B and T cells, migrate to thymus and differentiate into T cells  
🗑
Monocytes   4-8%, potent phagocytic, 2nd type to arrive at scene of injury, become macrophages, Kupffer cells in liver, osteoclasts in bone, macrophages in lungs  
🗑
Interact with lymphocytes to facilitate humoral and cellular immune responses   macrophages  
🗑
Thrombocytes   platelets – initiate clotting process  
🗑
Megakaryocyte   produce platelets  
🗑
Thrombopoietin   regulates platelet production – growth factor acting on bone marrow  
🗑
Platelets have life span of   5-9 days  
🗑
The __ of hemoglobin accounts for 2/3 of iron in body   heme  
🗑
1/3 of iron in body stored as   ferritin and hemosiderin (degraded form of ferritin) in bone marrow, spleen, liver, and macrophages  
🗑
When stored iron is not replaced __ production is reduced   hemoglobin  
🗑
Transferrin   synthesized in liver – serves as carrier plasma protein for iron  
🗑
Vascular spasms of vasoconstriction can last for   20 – 30 mins – allowing time for platelet response and clotting factors to activate  
🗑
Platelet response and plasma clotting factors are triggered by   endothelial injury & release of substances such as tissue factor (TF)  
🗑
Platelets are activated when exposed to   interstitial collagen from injured blood vessel  
🗑
Which platelet factor facilitates coagulation?   factor 3  
🗑
What chemical increases platelet adhesiveness and aggregation   adenosine diphosphate  
🗑
Intrinsic pathway activated by?   collagen exposure  
🗑
Extrinsic pathway initiated when?   tissue factor is released extravascularily from injured tissues  
🗑
vWf (von Wildebrand factors) is important for?   forming adhesive bridge between platelets  
🗑
Thrombin is most powerful enzyme in the   coagulation process – converts fibrogen to fibrin  
🗑
Fibrin split products (FSPs)   fibrin split into smaller elements by plasmin  
🗑
If fibrinolysis is excessive, the pt will be predisposed to   bleeding  
🗑
Increased FSPs (fibrin split products) lead to   impaired platelet aggregation, reduced prothrombin, and inability to stabilize fibrin  
🗑
Functions of spleen   hematopoietic, filtration, immunologic, and storage  
🗑
Hematopoietic function   spleen’s ability to produce RBCs during fetal development  
🗑
What does spleen do regarding hemoglobin?   catabolizes it and returns iron component back to bone marrow for reuse  
🗑
90% of platelet mass is stored in   spleen  
🗑
By means of __, proteins and fat from GI tract are able to return to circ. Sys.    
🗑
Lymph capillaries do not contain   valves  
🗑
All lymph fluid carried to   right lymphatic duct or thoracic duct, then subclavian veins in neck.  
🗑
Primary function of lymph nodes is   filtration of pathogens and foreign particles carried by lymph to nodes.  
🗑
__ produces all the procoagulants essential to hemostasis and blood coagulation.   liver  
🗑
Hepcidin, produced by liver, is key regulator of   iron balance  
🗑
Synthesis of hepcidin stimulated by   iron overload or inflammation  
🗑
Amount of marrow and stem cells __ with aging   decreases  
🗑
The ___ of RBCs in increased in the older person   osmotic fragility  
🗑
The total WBC count and differential are generally __ by aging.   not affected  
🗑
There is diminished bone marrow reserve of __ in older adults   granulocytes  
🗑
Where does iron absorption occur?   in the duodenum  
🗑
Surgical excision of the duodenum affects what?   iron absorption  
🗑
Partial or total gastrectomy affects blood how?   removes parietal cells, thus reducing intrinsic factor needed to abosorb cobalamin (b12)  
🗑
Ileal resection affects blood production how?   This is where cobalamin (B12) absorption takes place  
🗑
