hema one Flashcards
- Anemia can be caused by chronic blood loss or acute blood loss
both
- A Classification of anemia, or MCV, is > 90 fl but MCHC is normal
Macrocytic normochromic anemia
- Impaired release of storage iron associated with increased HEPCIDIN LEVEL
Anemia of chronic disease
- Caused by block in the protoporphyrin pathway resulting in defective hemoglobin synthesis and iron overload
Sideroblastic anemia
- Anemia with normocytic normochromic anemia, by characteristics cause of basophilic stippling
Seen in lead poisoning
- A falsely elevated hematocrit is obtained, which of the following calculated values will not be affected.
MCH
- Which of these types of anemia are under the category of impaired production
Iron deficiency, sideroblastic anemia, anemia of chronic inflammations. All of the choices are types of anemia are impaired types of anemia
- The RBC indices obtained in the patient are as follows:
MCV: 88 fl
MCH: 30 pg
MCHC: 34%
Rbc on the pbs would appear:
Normocytic normochromic anemia
- (DATA TABLE) in an uncomplicated cases of severe iron deficiency anemia which of the following sets shows typical pattern of results
Decrease rbc, hemoglobin, mcv, mch, mchc, serum iron, serum ferritin, percent saturation, bone marrow iron stores, RDW distribution width and TIBC and serum soluble transferrin receptors are increased
- What is the first type of cell that is produced by the developing embryo
Erythrocytes
- As most blood cells lines matures, which of the following is the characteristics
Nucleus to cytoplasm ratio decreases N:C decrease
- DAT is open positive
Acquired hemolytic anemia
- Anemia of chronic infection is characterized by:
Decrease Serum iron levels
- A patient is admitted with a history of chronic bleeding secondary to peptic ulcer, hematology workup reveals severe microcytic hypochromic anemia. Iron studies are requested: which of the following will be expected
Decrease serum iron, increase TIBC, decrease storage iron
- Which of the set of laboratory findings is consistent with hemolytic anemia
Decrease in erythrocyte survival, increase of catabolism of protein content of heme
- Chronic blood loss can lead to
Gradual loss of blood, Lead to loss of iron leading to iron deficiency anemia
