Hematology, Bilirubin Flashcards
DDx neonatal thrombocytopenia
early 72 hrs
lateafter 72 hours
Bleeding disorders
- isolated high PT
- isolated high PTT
- both
blood vol for exchange transfusion
Hemolytic anemias
- pyruvate kinase deficiency
- glucose 6 phosphate deficiency
Other ddx hemolytic anemia
More ddx NB thrombocytopenia

Review thalassemias
Review thalassemias
Changes that lead to RBC storage lesions
Continuing to rise BR - on ptx
HyperBR, phototherapy risk factors
Review thalassemias
- clinical presentation
chromosome - encodes alpha globin
chromosome - encodes beta globin
chromosome 16
chromosome 11
most common worldwide hemoglobinopathy
Hgb E - decrease PRODUCTIONof beta chains - chronic, mild hemolytic anemia; esp SE asia
21glu ->lys
can still form tetramer with alpha 2 chains
KB test calc
% Hgb F = # fetal cells / # maternal cells x 100 (assumes maternal cells 500 mL)
Ask to calculate fetal blood loss by KB test -> take % hgb fetus and x 5000
Rhogam vials = mL blood / 15
Congenital erythrocyte underproduction
- Diamond Blackfan
- Fanconi Anemia
Diamond Blackfan - AD, AR
- pure RED CELL aplasia
- may have increased Hgb F
- Increased RBC adenosine deaminase levels
- MACROcytoci anemia at 2 months, low retic,BM no erythroid precursors + TRIPHALANGEAL THUMBS, abnormal facial, maybe cardiac, renal
Increase risk MDS, AML; chronic transfusions, steroid, BM tx possible
Fanconi anemia
- chromosomal INSTABILITY - lots of breaks
- hypoplastic BONE MARROW - anemia then pancytopenia
- MACROCYTOSIS, TRIPHALANGEAL thumbs, RADIAL hypoplasia, renal, ear malformations, strabismus
Test chromosome with mitomycin for BREAKS; Rx ANDROGENS, GF, BM tx
RBC membrane defect
RBC biochemical defect
Her spherocytosis - AD, membrane instability, aplastic crisis, vaccinate ENCAPSULATED ORGANISMS, +osmotic fragility test
G6PD defn - #1enzyme deficiency, XLR -> cannot make NADPH so decrease levels, worse with oxidant STRESS; HEINZ bodies; FN if not in crisis
Pyruvate kinase deficiency - AR, not convert PEP to pyruvate so not generate ATP; chronic anemia;
most common solid tumor
second most common
Teratoma - 50% SCT, malignant potential <10% neonates
Neuroblastoma - adrenal, neural crest (horner HTN, flushing, dd, subcutaneous nodules), < 12 mo = better prognosis
Prognosis depends on stage, age, N-myc amplification; Stage IV S - < 1 yo better prognosis (although mets)
Ax NF, central hypoventilation, Hirschsprung
Other tumors
- pheochromocytoma
- Wilms
- hepatoblastoma
- retinoblastoma – inheritance
- rhabdomyosarcoma
P - von hippel lindau, catecholamine
W - GU, hemihypertrophy ASS - mets - good prognosis - BW, Denys Drash, WAGR, pearlman
H - increased AFP, thrombocytosis
R - sporadic > AD; 45% passing on if bilateral, 6% unilateral; 2nd sibling if 1st bilateral - 3%
FFP contains…
Cryo contains…
FFP - all factors + gamma globulins + albumin + protein factors
Cryo - VIII, vWF, fibrinogen, XIII, fibronectin
Congenital leukemia
Histiocytosis
Langerhans - F,pancytopenia, multi organ infiltration
HLH - F, pancytopenia, low fibrinogen, high ferritin/high TG, HSM, adenopathy
BR - increase production or increase circulating BR
Production usually 2/2 increased RBC breakdown
Increased enterohepatic circulation due to bowel obstruction, delayed enteral feeds, HD, mec ileus
OTHER - cong hypothyroidism, tyrosinemia, liver failure, sepsis
Drugs that uncouple BR from albumin
ceftriaxone (although confusion in Q - uncouples but also decreases unconjugated BR?)
Drugs where hyperbilirubinemia will influence its dose
