Question
Answer
erythrocytes   show
🗑
show involved in the body defenses, such as destruction of bacteria and viruses.  
🗑
thrombocytes   show
🗑
show erythropoiesis (the process of RBC production) depends on healthy conditions of the bone marrow, diets in iron and copper, amino acids and vitamins esp. B12.  
🗑
What does the leukocyte differential mean?   show
🗑
Blood Clotting Process:   show
🗑
show A, B, AB, or O. AB is the universal recipient. O is the universal donor.  
🗑
show maintenance of fluid balance, production of lymphocytes, and absorption and transport of lipids from the intenstine to the blood stream.  
🗑

🗑
tonsils   show
🗑
show serves as a reservoir for blood, forms lymphocytes, monocytes and plasma, destroys worn out RBC's, removes bacteria by phagocytosis, and produces RBC's before birth.  
🗑
show develops the immune system in utero and for a few months after birth. develops T-lymphocytes of the cell mediated immune response before they migrate to the lymph nodes and spleen.  
🗑

🗑

🗑
show acquired hemorrhage syndrome of clotting, cascade, over stimulation and anti-clotting process.  
🗑
show an abnormal increase in the number of circulating RBC'S.  
🗑
show the process of RBC production  
🗑

🗑
show hereditary coagualtion ddisorder caused by a lack of antihemophiliac factor VII, which is needed to convert prothrombin to thrombin through thromboplasm component.  
🗑
hetrozygous   show
🗑
show cause unknown  
🗑
show malignant disorder of the hematopoietic system in which an excess of leukocytes accumulates in the bone marrow and lymph nodes.  
🗑
leukopenia   show
🗑
lymphangitis   show
🗑
show primary or secondary disorder characterized by the accumulation of lymph in the soft tissue and edema.  
🗑
multiple myeloma   show
🗑
show excess of bone marrow production  
🗑
show deficient conditon of all three major blood elements.  
🗑
show capable of causing great injury or destruction: deadly or fatal.  
🗑
show Atypical histocytes, large, abnormal multinucleated cells of the lymp system found in Hodgkins.  
🗑
thrombocytopenia   show
🗑
CBC Complete Blood Count   show
🗑
Erythrocyte Indices   show
🗑
Peripheral Smear:   show
🗑
show blood test for dx pernicious anemia. measures the absorption of vitamin B12.  
🗑
Gastric Analysis   show
🗑
Radiologic Studies   show
🗑
show specific for establishing the diagnosis and for treatment and response. used in lukemia.  
🗑
lymphangrography   show
🗑
Six S/S assoc. with HYPOVOLEMIC SHOCK:   show
🗑
adaptive immunity   show
🗑
show a substance that can produce a hypersensitive reacton in the body but is not necessarily inherently harmful.  
🗑
antigen   show
🗑
show the process of weakening the degree of virulence of a disease or organism.  
🗑
show immune response to one's own tissue  
🗑
autologous   show
🗑
cellualr immunity   show
🗑
show one of the tow forms of immuity that respond to antigens such as bacteria and foreign tissue immediately by B cells.  
🗑
show an abnormal condition characterized by and excessive reaction to a particular stimulus  
🗑
immunity   show
🗑
show process by which resistance to an infectious disease is induced or increased.  
🗑
show the ability of an immune system to mobolize and deploy its antibodies and other responses to stimulaton by an antigen.  
🗑
immunodeficiency   show
🗑
show an agento or substance capable of provoking an immune response or producing immunity.  
🗑
show the study of the immune system  
🗑
immunosuppressive   show
🗑
immunotherapy   show
🗑
natural innate immunity   show
🗑
acquired adoptive immunity   show
🗑
immunization   show
🗑
show a special tx of allergic responses that admin increasing larger doses to the offending substance to gradually develop immunity. alergy shots is ex.  
🗑
show meadiated by B cells. they produce antibodies in response to antigen challange. 1st exposure is slow compared w/ subsequent antigen exposures. when 2nd exposure occurs it has a quick response, because it remembers how to kill it.  
🗑
show T-cells activated by an antigen. Whole cells become sensitized and released into the blood and tissues. On contact w/ antigen they attach to the organism and destroy it. hypersensitivity reaction are cell mediated.  
🗑
immunocompetence   show
🗑
immunodeficientcy   show
🗑
show pertainging to the development of an immune response to one's own tissues.  
🗑
show host response to alergen, exposure amount, nature of the alergen, route of alergen entry, repeated exposure.  
🗑
show the more sensitibe the individual the greater the allergic response is.  
🗑
exposure amount   show
🗑
show most allergy reactions are percipitated by complex high molecular weight protien substances.  
🗑
show most allergens enter the body via gi and respiratory routes. injection of venoms and meds hold a more severe threat of allergic response.  
🗑
repeated exposure:   show
🗑
Old RBC's are destroyed by the _________ and recycled.   show
🗑
show most abundant responsible for phagocytosis (cell eating/ germs and necrotic tissues)  
🗑
puss is made of   show
🗑
show most rare. responsible for inflammation, they rally the troops.  
🗑

🗑
Schilling Test:   show
🗑
Hemochromatosis   show
🗑
show the body asorbs an abnormally high ammount of iron and the treatment is blood letting.  
🗑
show rbc tranfusions cause this because after the RBC's are broken down by the spleen, the iron is still reasorbed by the body. treatment is injectable meds that bind with the iron and it will be excreated.  
🗑
