Mrs. Deneal -med surg hematopoietic and lymphatic disorders

        Help!  

Question
Answer
Nutrients involved in erthropoiten   iron, B12, folic acid, Vitamin C (inhances absorbtion), B6 (hemoglobin formation), copper (transfer of iron storage to plasma)  
🗑
Hemoglobin is made from   protein  
🗑
epoetin (Epogen)   stimulate production of RBC  
🗑
Filgrastim (Neupogen)   promote proliferation of neutrophils  
🗑
reasons for anemia   1) blood loss, 2)inadequate or abnormal erythrocyte formation, destruction of normal RBC  
🗑
hypovolemia   large volume loss of blood or chronic blood loss  
🗑
compensatory mechanisms for hypovolemia   rapid HR, rapid respiratory  
🗑
hypovolemia treatment   give blood, treat cause  
🗑
iron def. anemia   iron is insufficient to produce hemoglobin  
🗑
sickle cell trait   only inherited one gene for sickle cell  
🗑
sickle cell crisis   sickle shaped celsss lodge in small blood vessels blocking flow of blood and oxygen  
🗑
Sickledex test   determines the presence of abnormal HbS screeing for sickle cell  
🗑
sickle cell hemoglobin levels   7-10  
🗑
hemolytic anemia   chronic premature destruction of erythrocytes  
🗑
causes of hemolytic anemia   cardiopul bypass, arsenic/lead poisioning, malria parasite, infectious agents, toxins or chemical exposure  
🗑
treatment of hemolytic anemia   remove cause, corticosteriods, blood trans, splenectomy (when medical treatment fails)  
🗑
Thalassemias   hereditary hemolytic anemia-no cure  
🗑
Thalassemia treatment   supportive-require more frequent blood trans, place on bed rest protect from infection  
🗑
Pernicious Anemia   client lacks intrinsic factor interfere with absorbtion of B12  
🗑
B12   extrinsic factor needed for maturation of erythrocytes  
🗑
Schilling test   given radioactive B 12 and urine tested to see if it made it through the system. If not there is a intrinsic problem  
🗑
Pernicious anemia Tx   B12  
🗑
Folic Acid deficiency anemia   lack of B9 intake causing immature erythrocytes  
🗑
S&S sickle cell   jaundice, dysfunctional spleen, severe pain, fever, joint swelling, chronic leg ulcers  
🗑
S&S Hemolytic and Hypovolemic anemia   extreme pallor, tachycardia, reduce urine output In hemolytic sever-jaundice enlarged spleen  
🗑
S&S iron def anemia   cold, fatigue, dypnea on exertion, fast HR  
🗑
S&S pernicious anemia   stomatitis, jaundice, irritabolity, confusion, depresion, glossitis diarrhea, numbness and tingling in legs  
🗑
S&S folic acid def anemia   severe fatigue, sore beefy red tongue, dypnea, nausea, anorexia, headached, weakness, light headness  
🗑
treatment folic acid anemia   supplements, diet high in folic acid  
🗑
polycythemia vera   greater then normal erythrocytes, leukocytes, and platelets  
🗑
problem with polycythemia vera   blood gets too thick and clots, more uria from dead cells causing gout like symptoms  
🗑
S&S plycythemia vera   face and lips reddish-purple, fatigue, weakness, headache, pruritus, exertional dyspnea, dizziness, splemomegaly, swollen joints  
🗑
splenomegaly   enlargement of the spleen  
🗑
diagnostic findings of polycythemia vera   high levels of serum K, high uric acid  
🗑
Tx polycythemia vera   lessen blood volume, lessen viscosity, curb excessive erythrocyte production phlebotomy-500ml several times a week, drink 3 quarts of fluid a day  
🗑
leukocytosis   increased # of leukocytes causing quality to go down  
🗑
Leukemia   malignant blood disorder in which proliferation of leukocytes in immature form is unregulated often acompanied by decrease RBC and platlets  
🗑
S&S Leukemia   prone to bleeding, infections, fatigue from anemia, bruising  
🗑
Some TX for leukemia   supportive care, profilactic antibiotics, transfuse platlets, radiation, bone marrow transplant  
🗑
neutropenic precautions   private room, wash hands , daily shower, mask if leaving room or in crowds, no flowers int he room, no raw fruits or veg  
🗑
mulitple myeloma   malignancy invloving plasma cells which are B-lymph cells in bone marrow- plasma cells invade bone marrow  
🗑
S&S multiple myeloma   pain in pelvis spine ribshigh incidence of infection, anemia symptoms, brusing, nosebleeds  
🗑
TX multiple myeloma   bolld trans for anemia, steroids and anticance drugs, braces for bones, autologus bone marrow and peripheral stem cell transplants, SAFETY  
🗑
Agranulcytosis   decreased # of granulocytes including neutriphils, basophils, eosinophils  
🗑
leukopenia   general reduction in WBC  
🗑
Most common cause of agranulocytosis   toxicity from drugs  
🗑
Tx agranulocytosis   removal of cause  
🗑
S&S agranulocytosis   fatigue, chills, headache, opportunistic infections  
🗑
pancytopenia   # of marrow-produced cells blood cells are reduced  
🗑
disseminated intravascular coagulation   hypercoagulation is followed by diffuse bleeding as clotting factors are exhausted  
🗑
thrombocytopenia   when platlet manufacture by the bone marrow is decreased or platlet destruction by the spleen is increased  
🗑
thrombocytopenia TX   corticosteriods, blood trans  
🗑
hemophilia   disorder of clot factors inherited from mother to son  
🗑
hemophilia pt teachings   no aspirin, med alert bracelet, soft toothbrush  
🗑
food sources of heme iron   meat, egg yolks, oyster, shell fish dark meat  
🗑
to maximize onheme absorption   vitamin c, no coffee or tea during meals  
🗑
folic acid rich foods   enriched breads, fortified cereals, broccoli, green leafy veg, milk , eggs  
🗑
do no take oral iron with   cofee, tea, milk, eggs  
🗑
do not give sickle cell pt   demerol- liver converts it to normeperidine which is toxic and can cause grand mal seizures  
🗑
sickle cell pt need to avoid   hugh altitudes, dehydrating fluids, , cold fluids, cigarettes, tight clothes  
🗑
hemolytic anemia pt needs to avoid   greens/turnips becuase vitamin K  
🗑
anything that affects bone marrow affects...   platlet production  
🗑
