IV hep, then IR intraARTERIAL fibfrinolysis or embolectomy
Sickle cell in kids, what ppx
Give 3 vacciens, penicillin ppx until 5.yo. (similar to splenectomy and rheumatic)
Neutropenia/neutropenic fever thresholds/critera
ANC less than 1500; severe is ANC less than 500. Tx with antipseudomonal if febrile.
How to confirm ALL
must bone marrow biopsy to show >20/25% lymphoblasts in amrrow. Blood smear is not a confirmation.
SS which bug do you see in osteo
– Staph> Salm
Febrile nonhemolytic reaction, what to do if you ened to give blood and in future cases. Which pt do you do this with ppx?
Leukoreduction – get rid of the cytokines and remnant white blood cells that cause the febrile rnonhemolytic rx.
Do this ppx in chronically transfused and CMV seronegative pt at risk (aids tx).
When do yu wash RBC?
– IgA def, complement hemolytic anemia.
When do you irradiate RBC
