Blood Pressure Lab Flashcards
this depends on antigens on the surface of RBC and antibodies in your serum
blood type
molecule recognized by body as being foreign
antigen
immunoglobulins that are special proteins produced and secreted by B-lymphocytes in response to a specific antigen
antibody
an antibody consists of these threee things
binding site, 2 heavy chains, 2 light chains
when antigen and antibody react blank occurs
agglutation
agglutation is blank
clumping of blood
special class of white blood cell that produces antibodies
B-lymphocyte
B-lymphocytes develop in the blank
bone marrow
this cell secretes antibodies
plasma cell
this cell remembers antigens
memory cell
called the d antigen
rh factor
when fetal blood is attacked by mothers anti Rh antibodies
erythroblastosis fetalis
erythroblastosis is prevented by blank
Rhogam
if wrong type of blood is transfused then it is
rejected
two types of agglutation
minor, major
agglutation where donor blood has antibodies that react with recipient but have little effect
minor agglutation
agglutation where recipients have antibodies that attack donor blood
major
universal recipient
AB
universal donor
O
produced by pumping action of heart into arterial blood vessels
blood pressure
volume of blood ejected per beat
stroke volume
beats per minute
heart rate
amount of blood pumped per minute
cardiac output
map means
mean arterial pressure
