Anatomy pratical 1 Flashcards
bringing nutrients and oxygen to the cells and removing wastes and carbon dioxide from the interstitial fluid around the cells
Transportation system
Normal blood cells values:
Rbcs
* males:
* Females:
White blood cells
* males
* females
Platelets
Rbcs
* males: 5.4 +/- 0.8 mm^3
* Females: 4.8 +/- 0.6 mm^3
White blood cells
* males: 7-9000 per mm^3
* females: 5-7000 per mm^3
Platelets
150,000 to 400,000 per mm^3
average= 300,000 per mm^3
hemoglobin can carry…
1.34 ml of O2
In each 100ml of blood there is roughly 15g of Hb, hence around…..
20ml oxygen can be carried in every 100ml of blood
abnormal decrease in number of erythrocytes, so that insufficent oxygen is carried to the tissues and they become oxygen starved
Anemia
percent volume of whole blood that is occupied by red blood cells
Hematocrit
blood hematocrit normal values
Male average:
female average:
Male range:
female range:
Male average 46%
female averae 41%
Male range 43-49%
female range: 36-45%
the hematocrit may fall to as low as 15% in severe ….. or rise to as high as 70% in ……
anemia
polycythemia
Average concentrations of hemoglobin
male average
female average
male range
female range
male average: 15.4g/100ml blood
female average: 13.3 g/100ml blood
male range: 13.6 to 17.2
female range: 11.5 to 15.0
less than 10g/100ml is usually considered….
anemic
color compound
cyanmethemoglobin
totoal blood Hb calculation
Total blood Hb= blood volume (ml) x hemoglobin concentration (g Hb/ml blood)
Total O2 carrying capacity equation
Total O2 carrying capacity= total Hb x 1.34ml O2/g Hb
blood volume for humans is:
males-
women-
males= 79 ml blood per kilogram body +/- 10%
Females= 65ml blood per kilogram body weight +/- 10%
