| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What is most common hematologic disorder of childhood | anemia |
| what are s/s or anemia | fatigue, pallor, tachy, SOB, murmur, nutrition deficiency, bone marrow failure |
| what is hemodilution | effect of anemia on circulation, blood diluted, turbulence for heart leads to murmurs, cardiac failure, cyanosis, growth retard |
| what is Hct/Hgb levels for aduilts | Hct male: 37-49, female: 36-46 Hgb male: 13-16, female: 12-16 |
| what is supportive care for anemia | IV fluids, O2, bed rest |
| How long does iron build up for term baby. What can lead to iron deficiency | 4-5mos, preemie: 2-3mos infection, illness, diet, malabsorption. |
| How give child more iron | iron fortified forumla, cereal, not just milk(no iron). Have dk stools, Vit C enhance absorption |
| Sickle Cell | replace normal Hgb wtih HgbS and takes sickle shape Hypoxia causes sickling |
| what is splenic sequestration | pooling blood enlarges spleen, lead to hemorrhage, pain in LUQ |
| Hemolysis leads to | hemo: anemia to hemodilution to heart failure |
| what is leading cause of death in sickle cell | bacterial infection |
| what can lead to sickle cell crisis | incr body's need for O2, trauma, infection, fever, stress, dehydration, high altitude, airplanes, hypothermia |
| what is most common type of crisis | vaso-occlusive (VOC) thrombotic, very painful. Vaso to hypoxia to tissue ischemia to infarction. |
| Splenic sequestration | hypovolemia, life threatening, blood pools, decr BP, incr HR |
| aplastic crises | decr RBC, viral inf or decr folic acid. Pallor, HA |
| tx for sickle of children | antibiotics, monitor bone marrow fx, blood transfusions lead to hemosiderosis(incr iron) then do chelation, hydroxyurea, no demerol |
| nsg mgmt of sickle cell | monitor growth, assess pain, observe for infeciton, s/s shock, psychosocial |
| what is epitaxis and how to care for it | nose bleeds. Lean forward, pressure, ice, calm If last 20-30 min, go to hospital, norm is 10 min |
