CHAPTER 29 part 1 Flashcards
lower than normal hemoglobin and fewer than normal circulating erythrocytes
anemia
there is a defect in production of erythrocytes (RBCS)
hypoproliferative
excess DESTRUCTION of erythrocytes
hemolysis
it is caused by altered erythropoiesis, or direct injury to the erythrocyte
hemolysis
erythropoietin is produced by what organ
kidney
it is needed in order for the bone marrow to produce new blood cell (it signals the bone marrow)
erythropoietin
there is a cracks or source both of the angles in corners of the mouth
angular cheilitis
give manifestations of anemia
fatigue
pallor
tongue changes
nail changes
angular chelitis
pica
a mental health disorder where a person compulsively swallows non-food items
pica
the byproduct of rbc destruction
billirubin
this occurs when there is a DECREASE OF OXYGEN IN THE BLOOD that causes clubbing of finger
hypoxemia
a condition that causes red, swollen patches in the corners of your mouth where lips meet and make an angle
angular cheilitis
give diagnostic test for anemia:
hemoglobin and hematocrit
reticulocyte count
rbc indices
iron studies
bone marrow aspiration
measures the NUMBER OF IMMATURE RED BLOOD CELLS in your bone marrow
reticulocyte count
measure the size, shape, and quality of the red blood cells
rbc indices
a small sample of bone marrow is removed by the use of cannula, usually from the hip bone, breast bone, or thigh bone
bone marrow aspiration
give medical management of anemias
dietary therapy
blood transfusion
iron and vitamin supplementation
an inherited blood disorder that ‘affects the shape of hemoglobin’
sickle cell disease
there is an abnormal mutation of beta hemoglobin
sickle cell disease
the shape of the hemoglobin in the sickle cell disease is _____
crescent/moon shape
what is the number one manifestation of sickle cell disease
pain
inherited blood disorder that ‘affects your body’s ability to produce hemoglobin and red blood cells’
thalassemia
what type of thalassemia: there is a DECREASED AMOUNT OF ALPHA chains but there is an increased amount of beta chains
alpha thalassemia
what type of thalassemia: there is a DECREASED AMOUNT OF BETA chains but there is an increased amount of alpha chains
beta thalassemia
there is a continuous destruction of rbc
G6PD (glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency
G6PD means
glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase
‘abnormally large amount of iron deposits’ in the body
hereditary hemochromatosis
types of hemolytic anemia:
sickle cell disease
thalassemia
g6pd
hereditary hemochromatosis
a subtype of hemoglobin that is NORMALLY PRESENT IN ADULTS
alpha-hemoglobin
what is the normal shape of hemoglobin
circle
a type of enzyme which PROTECTS YOUR RED BLOOD CELLS FROM DESTRUCTION
glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase
