heamatology 3 Flashcards
What do we do for a patient with DVT for C/I for anticoagulant?
Inferior venaca filiter
proximal/massive/limb ischemia risk Dvt with PE or life tret?
Thrombolitic
If C/I thrombolytic therapy?
Thrombectomy
a common cause of b12 deficincy?
Gastrectomy
Autoimmune gastritis
did megaloboastic animia cause jaundice?
yes (intramedullary mechanical hemolysis)
mutation in JAK 2?
polycythemia vera
A complication of PV?
Thrombosis
myelofibrosis
leukemia
a common cause of anemia after erythropoietin administrasion?
IDA(especially microcytic anemia)
B/C depletion of Iron store by erythropoiesis and chronic disease
management?
Intravenous IRON
ITP management in children?
only mucocutaneous bleeding –observe
if bleeding-corticosteroid,anti D and Iv Ig
Role of anti-D in ITP?
Anti-D therapy appears to inhibit macrophage phagocytosis by a combination of both FcR blockade and inflammatory cytokine inhibition of platelet phagocytosis within the spleen. Anti-RhD treatment is associated with mild to moderate infusion toxicities.
hereditary spherocytosis lab finding?
Increase MCHC
small, hypochromic, round RBC w/o central pallor
Negative coombs test
Increase osmotic fragility by acidic glycerol lytic test
Abnormal eosin 5 maleimide binding test
Treatment?
Folic acid
Transfusion
Splenectomy(reduce hemolysis and gall stone risk)
why MCHC?
RBC dehydration
Membrane loss
Inheritance?
Autosomal dominant
Calcium (serum) normal level?
8.6-10.3 mg/dL
APL CM?
common in young and middle-aged adult
Pancytopenia
laboratory?
pancytopenia
myeloblast with our road
15:17 muchation-APL gene to retinoic acid receptor alpha
management?
ALTRA-induce lukocyte diferenciation
complication?
DIC by inducing TF release and plasmin release-CVS and pulmonary hemorrhage
IDA in older patients require?
endoscopic evaluation
Investigation for pernicious anemia?
Esophagogastroduodenoscopy. especially when they have suspicious symptoms for gastric ca.
A complication of atrophic gastritis?
gastric ca
Pica?
excessive appetite for non-food particles like paper products, ice, clay, or dirt.
what does it indicate?
IDA(it may precede the anemia)
Role of bisphosphonate therapy in hypercalcemia?
Inhibit osteoclastic activity
Also, Prevent complications of bone metastasis I.E # and malignant hypercalcemia.
what do things indicate polycythemia is due to OSA?
Presence of OSA complication
- HF
- HTN
- Erectile dysfunction
- Arrhythmia
How does OSA cause polycythemia?
Increase erythropoietin production
Hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasis?
Osler-weber-rendu syndrome
CM?
Autosomal dominant
Telagectaiss
AV malformation
Recurent epistaxix
AV malformation common location?
Skin Mucous membrane GI tract Brain Liver Lung
Telaegctasia CM?
Telangiectasia is a condition in which widened venules (tiny blood vessels) cause threadlike red lines or patterns on the skin
Ruby colored vision that Blanche with pressure
a complication of AVM with a right to left shunt?
chronic hypoxia
Clubbing
Polycythemia
Pulmonary AVM?
Can present with massive hemoptysis
