QuestionAnswer
o Clotted RBCs o Has no fibrinogen because it is already clotted o Clotting or coagulation proteins are absent because they are already used up Serum
o Anticoagulated RBCs o With the presence of fibrinogen o Clotting or coagulation proteins are present Plasma
COAGULATION PROTEINS (FACTORS) (1-6) 1. Fibrinogen 2. Prothrombin 3. Tissue Thromboplastin 4. Calcium Ions 5. Labile Factor 6. Stable Factor
COAGULATION PROTEINS (FACTORS) (7-12) 7. Antihemophilic Factor 8. Christmas Factor 9. Stuart-Prower Factor 10. Plasma Thromboplastin Antecedent (PTA) 11. Hageman Factor 12. Fibrin Stabilizing Factor
COAGULATION PATHWAYS 1. Intrinsic Pathway 2. Extrinsic Pathway 3. CommonPathways
Usualy tested for activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) Intrinsic Pathway
Intrinsic Pathway; WHAT FACTORS INVOLVED? 12, 11, 9, 8
Usualytested for prothrombin time (PT) Extrinsic Pathway
Extrinsic Pathway ; WHAT FACTORS INVOLVED? 7, 3
Common Pathways ; WHAT FACTORS INVOLVED? 10, 5, 2, 1
Normal BLOOD vol in FEMALES 37-47% hematocrit
Normal BLOOD vol in MALES 42-52% hematocrit
Depressed hematocrit % Anemia
Elevated hematocrit % Polycythemia
Added in samples to preserve integrity ADDITIVES
TYPES OF ADDITIVES (ACGS) 1. Anticoagulant 2. Clot Activator 3. Gel 4. Special Additives
ADDITIVE that Prevents clotting Anticoagulant
ADDITIVE that Induces clot formation Clot Activator
Special ADDITIVES that is : used for arterial blood gas Lithium heparin
anti-glycolytic agent that preserves glucose by inhibiting enolase enzyme Sodium fluoride
TYPES OF UNACCEPTABLE BLOOD SPECIMENS (LIHC) 1. Lipemic Sample 2. Icteric Sample 3. Hemolyzed Sample 4. Chylous Sample
Lipemic Sample o Appearance: Milky serum/plasma
o Caused by high lipid levels in the blood o Requires dilution before being tested Lipemic Sample
Icteric Sample o Appearance: Dark yellow serum/plasma
Caused by HIGH bilirubin levels in the blood Icteric Sample
Two Types of Bilirubin 1) Conjugated Bilirubin: B2, direct bilirubin 2) Unconjugated Bilirubin: B1, indirect bilirubin
o Common in patients with hepatitis or liver diseases o Specimen must be covered from light to prevent oxidation of bilirubin content ■ Maydecrease bilirubin by 30-50% Icteric Sample
Hemolyzed Sample o Appearance: Dark orange to red serum/plasma
Cannot be tested for electrolyte testing Hemolyzed Sample
Hemolyzed Sample can be caused by Prolonged tourniquet Too small needle size Difficult drawing of blood Vigorous inversion of tubes Excessive puling of the plunger Incorrect manner of dispensing the sample
o Occurs after a meal o Chyle must be removed then perform ringing Chylous Sample
BLOOD COLLECTION SITES 1. Antecubital Fossa 2. Wrist area 3. Backof hand 4. Ankle 5. Topof the foot
o Most common site for blood collection o Can be either of the two vein patterns: i.H pattern i.M pattern: most common vein pattern Antecubital Fossa

WHAT SECTION ; Blood typing, Coombs test BB
WHAT SECTION ; Hormones, Tumor markers, Viral & bacterial infections IS
